My rails app contains something like the following in a view template

<%= image_tag 'http://foo.com/images/1' %>

Sometimes, if the url does not contain an image, the hosting site will return a response with a 404 or 302 status.

In this case, the alt-text for the image is displayed.

How can I detect the HTTP response status in order to insert a different image? (such as the next image, or a default ‘not found’ image)?

    Adding
    :onError => “alert(‘error’)”
    To the image tag triggers when the image doesn’t load.
