Well, thanks for the reply but - I am the host - and I consider myself
reliable.
The problem is with clients for whom I have built database driven sites for
and a typo of the filename causes the Red X.
For example, A real estate site, the owner creates a new listing and either
types the image name wrong or fails to upload the image alltogether.
Then you need to educate your users/client's to test the listing after
updating it and to check the path/capitalization/spelling of the image name.
Short of that, since you are the host, you can setup a server-side
routine to scan the page for img tags, check the existence of the image,
and replace it with an image of your own - all on the server before the
page ever gets to the browser.
The server is the place to fix the problem - not the client.
Signatures can be informative.
