    Description

      ADDITIONAL SYSTEM INFORMATION :
      Any OS. OpenJDK 15 with JavaFX 15.

      A DESCRIPTION OF THE PROBLEM :
      WebView can load local, "file:///", HTML page but when such page is styled by a local, "file:///", CSS stylesheet, this CSS stylesheet is not loaded. The error message is:

      Did not parse stylesheet at 'file:///home/.../red.css' because non CSS MIME types are not allowed in strict mode.[file:///home/.../page.html:0]

      There is no such problem with HTML pages/CSS stylesheets having a "http://" or "https://" URL (because the web server returns a valid MIME type for all the files it serves ???).

      This is a regression. It used to work fine with any previous version of JavaFX, including 14.0.2.


      REGRESSION : Last worked in version 14.0.2

      STEPS TO FOLLOW TO REPRODUCE THE PROBLEM :
      1) Compile attached SimpleBrowser.java:
      javac SimpleBrowser.java

      2) Save this HTML snippet to file "page.html":
      ---
      <!DOCTYPE html>
      <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
        <head>
          <meta charset="UTF-8" />
          <title>A page</title>
          <link rel="stylesheet" href="red.css" type="text/css" />
        </head>
        <body>
          <p>If CSS stylesheet "<code>./red.css</code>" is successfully loaded,
          this paragraph should contain some <strong>RED</strong> text.</p>
        </body>
      </html>
      ---

      3) Save this CSS snippet to file "red.css":
      ---
      p {
          color: red;
      }
      ---

      4) Run using OpenJDK 15+ JavaFX 15 on any OS:
      java SimpleBrowser page.html

      EXPECTED VERSUS ACTUAL BEHAVIOR :
      EXPECTED -
      "page.html" displayed by SimpleBrowser contains some red text and no error is reported.
      ACTUAL -
      "page.html" displayed by SimpleBrowser contains some black text.

      This error is reported:
      Did not parse stylesheet at 'file:///home/.../red.css&#39; because non CSS MIME types are not allowed in strict mode.[file:///home/.../page.html:0]
