--- Comment #2 from Said Abou-Hallawa <sabouhallawa at apple.com> ---
I tried to look for the specs of drawing the broken images but I could not find this part. WebKit, Chrome and FireFox intentionally draw this gray rect for the broken image. WebKit does that in RenderImage::paintReplaced() below the the statement:

 if (!imageResource().hasImage() || imageResource().errorOccurred()) 

This request is little bit strange. What exactly you are trying to achieve? If drawing the gray rect is bothering you, you can set the width and/or the height of the image to zero. When the src attribute is set to the image, the width and the height can be changed to the desired size. If you want to keep the empty space of the broken image but not to draw the gray rectangle, you can put the <img> inside a box with the desired size but set the width and the height of the image itself to zero.

I attached a test case showing two broken images, one image has size = (100, 100) which shows the gray rectangle. The other image has size = (0, 0) but it is inside a box with size = (100, 100).
