WebApp in HTML loading in iOS 6.1.3 the wrong way

Question

I have a problem with the new fakepath feature in iOS. All files are renamed to the path "C: \ fakepath \ image.jpg".

In previous versions of iOS 6, everything worked fine, the files had their original name "... / IMG _...", but one of the latest updates seems to have broken something by introducing this more stringent fake path. I think the problem is the following, can someone please confirm ?: Downloading .jpg is still working. Download .pngs no. If I download the .png file from the camera roll (for example, a screenshot), the path to the file is replaced with "C: \ fakepath \ image.jpg" and simply renamed to a .jpg file (the contents seem to remain png). I think the correct fake path in this case would be "C: \ fakepath \ image.png". This is where the problem begins.

Is this a bug in mobile Safari? Or my HTML buggy code (using some GWT magic). Tried this on my device with pure HTML, too - the same problem. Is my phone "misconfigured"? I would be happy if anyone could confirm this error before I implement some server-side magic as a workaround. Could not find anything on the Internet.

Greetings and thanks!

Configuring a mobile safari is usually not a problem, since the apple does not give you many options to actually change the safari configuration on a mobile device. This may be buggy HTML. Try using emulators of different versions for mobile safaris. If the problem is related to only one version of safari, try looking at the documentation of the updated version and see if they have changed somehow, as safari interprets certain tags in html5, so try to intercept most of this file and look into your code. If all the same, nothing, you can always use some scripts to handle a specific error. This can be a lengthy process. So good luck.
