Hi.

This tool is extremely useful - if it didn't exist, I'd have to write it myself!

However I've found a slight problem - it seems to not want to load images if the file extension isn't set correctly on them. I'm converting Mobipocket files (not being in the US I have to either blag credit for the Connect store or buy my books elsewhere...) and the images don't come with proper names. Right now I just spit out extentionless files matching the IDs in the file, but although they view fine in a IE, converting them to LRF loses the images. If I manually fix up the filenames and links to include the image extension, it works.

I could write some smarter post-processing stuff at this end, but is there a simple fix for html2lrf that would get around this?
