Bug 31008 – [Gtk] A PNG image from chart.apis.google.com is not displayed

• Component: Images
• Status: RESOLVED FIXED

[Pacho Ramos]

I get this behavior with midori and epiphany-2.28 with webkit 1.1.15.2 while it works fine from firefox

Try to vote in:
http://www.publico.es/votarEncuesta?idEncuesta=260&res=freemarker&idRespuesta=1114#encuesta

and you will see that image with results is not shown at all

The image is:
http://chart.apis.google.com/chart?cht=bvs&chbh=121,10,20&chs=262x190&chco=B0113A,E6E6E6&chl=90%|10%&chd=t:90,0|0,10

and you will see that it cannot be shown by webkit browsers while it's shown on from firefox

Thanks

Works fine in Chromium, FWIW.

Looks like a libsoup bug, maybe in SoupURI:

./get does not work

niraikanai:~/git/libsoup/tests%./get "http://chart.apis.google.com/chart?cht=bvs&chbh=121,10,20&chs=262x190&chco=B0113A,E6E6E6&chl=90%|10%&chd=t:90,0|0,10"
Could not parse 'http://chart.apis.google.com/chart?cht=bvs&chbh=121,10,20&chs=262x190&chco=B0113A,E6E6E6&chl=90%|10%&chd=t:90,0|0,10' as a URL


wget does


niraikanai:~/git/libsoup/tests%wget "http://chart.apis.google.com/chart?cht=bvs&chbh=121,10,20&chs=262x190&chco=B0113A,E6E6E6&chl=90%|10%&chd=t:90,0|0,10"

The problem is that the URL is using '%' as data without escaping it, which libsoup does not accept (following the RFC). What others do, like wget, is auto-escape when they figure out the character is not being used in the context of percent-escaping.

I have opened bug https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=609731 upstream to track this.

Thanks a lot
