Would a broken image inside of a "https" site cause the security prompt: "This page contains both secure and nonsecure items?"

no, unless the image URI exists on another server (especially one that doesn't use SSL) from the one the html is coming from.
A broken image means no data is transmitted, so no potential security risk either.

At least that's the logical reasoning, you'd have to try it to see if it's what really happens :)

Thanks for the answer, I actually found out what was causing it and you were right. It didn't have anything to do with the image.
