Hello Everyone,

I have a piece of code with a HTML image element. Initially it shows one image and after clicking the button it should show another one.

HTML

<html>
<head>
<title>Untitled Page</title>
    <script language="javascript" type="text/javascript">
<!-- Hide script from non-JavaScript browsers
function Clicked()
{
    document.getElementById("Image1").src = "Bones.bmp";
}
-->
</script>
</head>
<body>
<img alt="N/A" id="Image1" src="Valve.bmp" />
<input id="Button1" type="button" value="button" onclick = "Clicked()"/>
</body>
</html>

Everything is working fine if Bones.bmp actually exist. If i remove Bones.bmp, since there is no source now. Along with showing the alternate text N/A it also shows a little xmark in IE and iPhone Safari. How do i avoid this?

I believe that's the standard behaviour for missing images in IE!
