As far as I know both image and "Text" is inline elements and it's
advised to use line break <br> if you want to force a line break
within or between inline elements. I do it allways even if Mozilla
don't need it, because the fixed width is honoured by standard
following browsers.

But if it works on IE with a space, what's the problem with that?
