After hacking around a bit, I found out what the issue is. My base64
string being sent is correct; I test this by directly encoding the
base64 string into html using <img src="data:image/jpeg;base64,/9j/
4AAQ....."/> where the complete jpeg is embedded in base64. I tested
the Base64 string I'm sending to the webview in firefox and it worked.
The WebView isn't loading base64 image/jpeg's properly, but if I embed
the base64 string into the html, it will show up properly.
Hacky, but it works for now.
