Attachment: Test case

WFM on latest trunk nightly (2004053108) of Mozilla on Mac OS X 10.3.4. Test
case attached, showing the two hyperlinks. Whether the images point to an image
that exists or not made no difference, got the appropriate one of the image or
broken image link graphic for both images.

If it depends on the href, then chances are you're using an ad-blocker that
blocks those images for some reason....

I cannot reproduce the bug on Linux either.

Attachment: Revised HTML testcase

This testcase actually points to an image on the Web. WFM using Mac/1.8a1.

Belongs on L:I though this is probably ultimately WFM.

Please close this bug -- after more investigation, it has turned out to be an
error in my local configuration.

Sorry for the false alarm and thanks everyone for your time (and patience)!
