If the missing file extension is the problem, try another source for OpenStreetMap graphics.
The export tab may help you:

The following url will export you a map for the given coordinates:

http://tile.openstreetmap.org/cgi-bin/export?bbox=7.3229,51.4641,7.6127,51.6127&scale=110000&format=png

Lat = 51.4641 - 51.6127
Lon = 7.3229 - 7.6127
Format = mapnik
File format = png
Scale = 110000

This URL will cause a download but if I tried this:

<img src="http://tile.openstreetmap.org/cgi-bin/export?bbox=7.3229,51.4641,7.6127,51.6127&amp;scale=110000&amp;format=png" alt="OSM-Map" width="100%" />

And it worked, the map was displayed. Maybe this is a simple solution to your problem
