 The username/password prompt for HTTP Basic Authentication is not
 displayed a second time.  This seems to be related to various errors that
 are logged to the Browser Console (see attached log).

 To reproduce this problem:

 1. Open https://www.httpwatch.com/httpgallery/authentication/
 2. Click the "Display Image" button within Example 10 on that page.
 3. When prompted, enter httpwatch for the username and any password.
 4. Click the "Display Image" button a second time.

 Expected result: a new username / password prompt.
 Actual result: no prompt.
