The easy way to test it to create a HTML file with:
<img src="ftp://127.0.0.1/something" alt=""/>
and have netcat listen to port 21.
(Note that you have to type "200 ok"<enter> in order to get the
browser to start the FTP conversation. Maybe strace the netcat and
watch for accept() )
Confirmed with:
* Firefox 1.0.3
