On my express server I'm rendering a page with data as follows:

app.get('/people/:personID', function (req, res) {

  res.render(people/profile, {person: req.person });

});

In my profile.ejs file I can access the data in an ejs tag like so: <p><%= person.name %></p>

I can't figure how to change an attribute of an html tag to the value stored in this object though.

This doesn't work: <img id=my_img src=<%= person.picture %> alt=>

or this: $(#my_img).attr(src, <%= person.picture %>);

Also, if there's a better way to pass this document to the html page and access it I'm all ears(or eyes in this case). Thank you
