Hi David,
> Are you sure?
That is what the book [1] says (I was quoting from the book). Jeremy Keith is a pretty sharp fellow, so I assume it is correct.

Are you sure?
I don't see anything in here:
http://www.whatwg.org/specs/web-apps/current-work/#concept-media-load-algorithm
to suggest that the browser will use the file extension in this case,
rather than fetching the specified resouce and determining its file type
by inspecting its content.
