ADDITIONAL SYSTEM INFORMATION :
Using Azul Zulu 11.0.13 with OpenJFX, on Windows.
Recreated in Azul Zulu 17.0.1
Works fine on 11.0.9.1 (did not test other versions)
A DESCRIPTION OF THE PROBLEM :
When creating and opening a new webview, the first page loads without a user agent string, and I presume it lacks other relevant content. This could potentially break sites that adapt their content to the browser being used.
REGRESSION : Last worked in version 11
STEPS TO FOLLOW TO REPRODUCE THE PROBLEM :
Create a new web view. Give it a URL to load. Add it to a scene. Put that scene on a screen.
EXPECTED VERSUS ACTUAL BEHAVIOR :
EXPECTED -
The page loads, aware of the user agent being used.
ACTUAL -
The page reports that it wasn't given a user agent string. If you right click the page and choose 'Reload' the page will reload with the proper user-agent string.

Scene scene = new Scene(vBox, 960, 600);
primaryStage.setScene(scene);
primaryStage.show();
}
}
---------- END SOURCE ----------
CUSTOMER SUBMITTED WORKAROUND :
A) Reload the page after initially loading it - awkward, but may get existing software to work.
B) Load some dummy content before providing the URL to load, eg:
webView.getEngine().loadContent("<html><body></body></html>","text/html; charset=utf8");
