Hi all, I'm trying to get Firefox set up so it'll display Japanese pages properly, but I don't seem to be having any luck.
I'm using Firefox 0.9.3 in Sarge. Whenever I view a page with Japanese characters in it, they get represented as a box with a four-character alphanumeric (hex?) code in it. Here's a screencap: http://shorty.ca/logs/yahoojp.png Now, I've installed a bunch of Japanese fonts as instructed here: http://www.mayin.org/aragorn/Japan/linux.html And they seem to work ... when I open a kterm window and cat a japanese text file, it displays fine. Also, firefox seems to _think_ it's working: The menu under View -> Character Encoding shows that it's autodetecting Japanese (sometimes Unicode, sometimes Shift_JIS), but still I get the same junk displayed. Also, manually selecting Unicode or Shift_JIS makes essentially no difference (The alignment moves around a bit, but I still get no Japanese characters). So how do I get this working?
