[webkit-gtk] No images on Windows, just wireframes

[Phil Longstaff]

I ran into an issue where I could see images on Linux and not on Windows.  I seem to recall that it was due to how webkit and the gio library interact.  On linux, the file extension was used and on windows, it needed "image/jpeg".  Anyhow, I know there is a fix for it.  I currently build webkitgtk from source I get from the fedora distro.  They have a webkitgtk-mingw32 source package which contains some patches, one of which fixes the issue.  I don't know what version of webkit/gtk the original poster is using, or if these patches have been submitted/included.

It seems unlikely this is the issue if things work on Linux, but not
Windows. Perhaps the URLs to the images are not constructed properly.
Are any informational messages dumped to the console while the program
is running?

The best way to debug the issue would be to do an implementation of
the Web Inspector and poke at it. That requires a bit of coding
though.
