Styling Broken Images

Read Original

This technical article explains how to style broken images using CSS. It details how the <img> element behaves, allowing pseudo-elements like :before and :after to be applied only when an image fails to load. The article provides practical code examples for adding custom error messages, replacing default alt text, and applying enhanced visual styling to broken image containers.
