Attachment: Reftests for Data:URL

I came across a document on mozilla.org that had some data:URL tests that I though might be useful. Ray Kiddy created a document and reviewed the tests, putting some in reftest form (thanks Ray). I have added the document he created for review.

Some notes from Ray:

Two of the URLs fail because if you encode the plain text as iso-8859-8-i, FF renders the glyphs one pixel higher than if the plain text is encoded as UTF-16BE. I think this is a bug.

In several cases, the browser will take a malformed data URL and do something with it. Reftest is pickier, so it will not load the URL. So, it cannot be tested.

I have put either a "QUESTION" or an "ERROR" above the line I think is a problem. I have commented out the tests that I am unsure of.

-> Networking since this is about data: URIs.
