Yes, that's a good point. I wondered if the browser instead gets its
queue from the Content-Type header MIME type (that is "image/gif" or
"image/png"). So I tested it. Apache gives "image/gif" even for a PNG
file, so Apache is looking only at the file extension. When my browser
(Chrome) gets the image file, it ignores the MIME type and instead looks at
the image file contents to see what it is and how to display it. Just like
Josh said.
