I've tested this with Chrome and Edge, and these browsers go even further. If the image format has a detectable signature, the image will be displayed regardless of the specified MIME type (even if it is not an `image` type). The MIME type only matters for image formats without signature, like SVG. In this case, the image will not be displayed if the MIME type is incorrect. I think that a compromise works best for JavaFX. We probably don't want to allow plainly incorrect MIME types, but in cases where we know what the developer should have specified, a warning seems like a good nudge in the right direction. ------------- PR: https://git.openjdk.java.net/jfx/pull/676
