There are jpegs on my WordPress blog that will display fine when viewed as part of the main page, but when you try to view image it displays indecipherable text. I moved one image to a new non WordPress associated directory and it worked fine.

hi, this will be a configuration issue on the server - it doesn't submit the right filetype ("Mime-type") information together with the data it sends, so the browser sin't aware that it should be rendered as a picture. you'd have to get in contact with the webmaster of this site and ask to get this issue addressed...

The server sends the file as text/plain and that makes Firefox show the file as a text file.

You can use a data URI to display the link as an image file: 

data:text/html,<img src='http://www.pediatricsafety.net/wp-content/uploads/2015/10/little-girl-tries-peanut-butter.jpg'>

You can create a new bookmark (name: Show as Image) with this data URI and set a keyword like 'img' to it.

  • data:text/html,<img src='%S'>

Then you can invoke the bookmarklet via the keyword and a space and the image URL appended. img http://www.pediatricsafety.net/wp-content/uploads/2015/10/little-girl-tries-peanut-butter.jpg
