Cannot open JPGs from FF

When I try to open a jpg embedded in a local web page, FF does nothing. Example:

<div class="wmPicture"><img src="p05_217a.JPG" alt="" /></div>

The image is there.

I checked, and there is no "Preview Document (image/jp2)" listed in Prefs>Applications.

How can I fix this?

I have no trouble opening PDFs in a local web page. Example:

<div class="wmPDF"><a href='#' OnClick='window.open("p05_218a.pdf","wmedia")'>

Thanks.

Are there any security related messages in the Web Developer > Error Console (Command + Shift + J)?

Firefox doesn't handle JPEG_2000 (jp2) images internally (bug 36351), so you need to add an extension or set an action for that MIME type.

There are no security messages.

So, how does one add an extension or set an action for that MIME type?

Thanks.
