Status:Behaves Correctly Resolved:Yes
Product:Webkit Product Version:
Classification: Reproducible:Always
 
Summary:
There is inconsistent handling of image width and exif data between OS X, Safari, Mobile Safari, and other Webkit browsers. The image in question displays wider-than-tall in OS X Finder and Mobile Safari, but taller-than-wide in desktop Safari (5.1.5), other webkit, and pretty much everywhere else.

Steps to Reproduce:
Place an image on a webpage with tiff properties showing a portrait orientation, but exif properties showing a landscape orientation. Mobile Safari (iPhone and iPad) as well as OS X Finder will show the image in a landscape orientation. Desktop Safari, other Webkit, everything else shows the image in a portrait orientation.

Expected Results:
Consistent behavior.

Actual Results:
Inconsistent behavior.
