------- Comment #3 from proton at wiretapped.net  2007-07-31 06:22 PDT -------
This is correct behaviour.

WebKit now enforces a behaviour where remote referrers can't access local
resources as this can be a security issue (change implemented in
<http://trac.webkit.org/projects/webkit/changeset/19952>).

You can tell WebKit that your protocol should be treated as local by adding the
following two lines to SpecialProtocol.m under line 157:

if ([[WebView class] respondsToSelector:@selector(registerURLSchemeAsLocal:)])
    [[WebView class] performSelector:@selector(registerURLSchemeAsLocal:)
withObject:[SpecialProtocol specialProtocolScheme]];

This code should work with any version of WebKit as it checks for the new
methods to be implemented before attempting to call them.
