firefox doesn't display wordpress jpegs correctly
There are jpegs on my WordPress blog that will display fine when viewed as part of the main page, but when you try to view image it displays indecipherable text. I moved one image to a new non WordPress associated directory and it worked fine.

hi, this will be a configuration issue on the server - it doesn't submit the right filetype ("Mime-type") information together with the data it sends, so the browser sin't aware that it should be rendered as a picture. you'd have to get in contact with the webmaster of this site and ask to get this issue addressed...
The server sends the file as text/plain and that makes Firefox show the file as a text file.
You can use a data URI to display the link as an image file:
data:text/html,<img src='http://www.pediatricsafety.net/wp-content/uploads/2015/10/little-girl-tries-peanut-butter.jpg'>
You can create a new bookmark (name: Show as Image) with this data URI and set a keyword like 'img' to it.
- data:text/html,<img src='%S'>
Then you can invoke the bookmarklet via the keyword and a space and the image URL appended. img http://www.pediatricsafety.net/wp-content/uploads/2015/10/little-girl-tries-peanut-butter.jpg
