What a silly thing to do..
If I save the source to my hard disk and change its extension to .jpeg
then it does indeed open (in Irfanview in my case) and show a nice
grabber picture.
But surely nobody would ever change it to a html file and upload as if
it were a web page. You should make a proper html webpage and put a
link to the .jpeg image in there. Very easy HTML.....
How ANY browser would expect to display an html file as a jpeg image is
beyond belief. I never thought IE was THAT bad...
Opera (which of course also displays the garbage) says in its 'info'
screen:
grabber.htmlURL of main page:
http://www.sm6bhz.com/grabber.html
Encoding (used by Opera): - not supplied - (windows-1252)
MIME type: text/html
Size of main page: 114,906 bytes
Number of inline elements: 1 (205 bytes)

Correctly of course interpreting it as text/html...
