Well, that is really the way FF works (unfortunately?). It doesn't display a 'placeholder square' and a red cross as IE does, nor does it obey the WIDTH and HEIGHT attributes that might be set on the IMG element (IE does); if the image doesn't exist.

HOWEVER, the ALT text will be displayed and a background-color will also show if set. So, always important to use the ALT text! And you could set a red background such as:

img { 
background-color:#f00; 
}
