Summary html files downloaded rather than displayed
orbisvicis
Reported 2016-07-29 10:53:32 PDT
version: WebKit 2.12.3 from Epiphany 3.20.3 This doctype causes webkit to download the HTML file instead of rendering it in-browser: <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd"> The related epiphany bug (redirects to here): https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=769312

All HTML doctypes work, all XHTML doctypes fail.

Comment 2 2016-07-29 11:07:40 PDT
XHTML doctypes work if the file suffix is ".xhtml" rather than ".html"

I wonder if it could be a regression from https://cgit.freedesktop.org/xdg/shared-mime-info/commit/?id=4961dc3e48d13c0c675ad7c135419b864813ca55

Strange, seems to work fine for me with the same Epiphany and WebKit versions. Did you find any example of a broken site on the Internet? What version of shared-mime-info do you have?

shared-mime-info.x86_64 1.6-1.fc24 This bug report is only applicable to local files (file:///), I forgot to mention. Test files: #1 <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd"> <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"> <head> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" /> </head> <body> <h1>Hello Heading</h1> <p>Hello paragraph.</p> </body> </html> #2 <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd"> <html> <body> <h1>Hello Heading</h1> <p>Hello paragraph.</p> </body> </html>

Yeah, both get displayed normally for me... I'm also on F24 with the same shared-mime-info package. I don't know what might account for this difference.

The patch in https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=107637 adds *.html as a glob for XHTML files. The files with this glob should then be differentiated using magic.

That the file type magic will be used to differentiate types with the same glob.
