DESCRIPTION: It seems that the referer HTTP header field is no longer sent for
images (or sent correctly). I haven't verified this, but this URL is known to
require that the referer be the page containing the image, or it sends the
"Incomplete Image Request" image instead.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE:
* load
http://www.intellicast.com/LocalWeather/World/UnitedStates/Northeast/Massachusetts/Boston/Radar/
ACTUAL RESULTS:
* "Incomplete Image Request Received" image
EXPECTED RESULTS:
* radar image
DOES NOT WORK CORRECTLY ON:
* Linux, mozilla, 2000-04-23-09-M16

Yep, that does seem to be what's happening.
mozilla
"GET / HTTP/1.1" 200 502 "" "Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Win98; en-US; m16)
Gecko/20000423"
"GET /icons/logo.gif HTTP/1.1" 200 3905 "" "Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Win98; en-
US; m16) Gecko/20000423"
internet explorer
"GET / HTTP/1.1" 200 502 "" "Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 5.01; Windows 98)"
"GET /icons/logo.gif HTTP/1.1" 200 3905 "http://jesser.dhs.org/" "Mozilla/4.0
(compatible; MSIE 5.01; Windows 98)"
proof that nobody knows whether it's referrer or referer:
http://www.w3.org/Protocols/rfc2616/rfc2616-sec14.html#sec14.36
(webster says 2 r's)
Once this is fixed, maybe look at bug 32359 again.
this turns out to be messier than I had envisioned. The recent docshell/webshell
changes seems to have left out setting the defaultLoadChannel which makes
getting the referrer difficult (in ImageAsyncNetContext::GetURL)
rpotts when you get a chance to cleanup that code, this will work fine.
deferring till M17.
