Bug 92654 – QWebKit will not display images generated through the Google Chart APIs. (Windows only)

• Status: RESOLVED
• Resolution: INVALID
• Component: WebKit Qt

Overview: 
QWebKit will not display images generated through the Google Chart APIs.

Platforms Tested:
1) Windows 7 32-bit with Qt version 4.8.1
2) Windows 7 32-bit with Qt version 4.8.2
3) Windows 7 64-bit with Qt version 4.8.2
4) Ubuntu Linux 12.04 Server Edition 64-bit with Qt 4.8.1

Platforms Affected:
1, 2, 3

Steps to Replicate:
Preamble: I have created a very simple web browser using QtWebKit. It can be found at https://github.com/hootener/SimpleBrowser. However, the issue is also encountered when using the Arora web browser version 0.11, which is built off of QtWebKit. So, either browser is applicable for the provided test case.

1) Open the Arora web browser or the provided simple browser using platform 1, 2, or 3. 
2) Navigate to any URL that should result in an image from the Google Chart APIs. Tested URLS: https://chart.googleapis.com/chart?chst=d_bubble_text_small&chld=edge_bc|test|FF0000|FFFFFF , https://chart.googleapis.com/chart?chst=d_map_pin_icon&chld=glyphish_group|00FF00

Actual Results:
The image will fail to load. Using the same URLs in another browser (such as Google Chrome) will display the appropriate image.

Expected Results:
An image should be displayed. This image will vary depending on the URL entered. For the examples given in Steps to Replicate (2),the user should see a red bubble marker with a group icon inside of it, and a red marker displaying the word "test" respectively.

Build Date and Platform:
Monday 30 July 12:00:00 - see Platforms Affected

Additional Builds and Platforms:
Does not occur on Ubuntu Server 12.04 64-bit with Qt 4.8.1
Untested on Mac OS


Additional Information:
Due to the differences in behavior across platforms, I feel that this is a bug in some platform-specific section of the QtWebKit implementation.

The Qt port has been removed from WebKit, resolving.
