How do you know it is buggy ? I'm sure the problem is that you don't interpret the data as it is encoded. There are many many ways to represent characters. Not only speaking about the code used (one byte, two bytes, multiple bytes, varying number of bytes) but also character sets (mapping between a given code and the character "image"). > How come the server is sending me something and the browser something > else? The browser doesn't send anything. The browser interpret what the server sent. It may happend that the server doesn't send the same thing to your program than it sends to the browser. Why ? Because a HTTP request is composed of an URL but also a header with many kind of informations the client give to help the server send the correct content. Use a sniffer to compare the request the browser send (pay attention to the header lines) and what the server returns. Build the same request with the HTTP component and verify that the server send the exact same content (it will for sure if the request is the same in all details). > Because I trully don't believe that Mozilla Firefox is parsing > that kind of data.
