I know very little about upstream, but I have the feeling that "Affects Mozilla Firefox" should be removed from alias Bug #206884 and set in main Bug #228988. Thanks.

I meant "It's the last time I rewrite the full bug description from the start", of course. I continue to reply what I didn't write already. I'm not threatening, I'm helping. Ubuntu asks users just to report bugs and I analyze them. I have no personal interest in this, I know how to put the displayed encoding right, I'm doing this for those who can't, for the sake of Firefox. I just tried the Googled-based procedure again (removed atilf from history, restarted Firefox, shown Google search, right-clicked "Open in tab") and there you have the picture : the new tab shows (page title) that UTF-8 has been used to decode the page. A page that "does not specify which encoding to use" should display with ISO8859-1. (and make tests only with pages that don't, of course) Truly, there's something unpredictable in this behaviour of Firefox regarding encoding. A more predictable test to make is this : - display http://atilf.atilf.fr/tlf.htm - View|Character encoding|Unicode (UTF-8) - restart Firefox - type http://atilf.atilf.fr/tlf.htm in the address bar and display again UTF-8 displayed again, and wrong : A page that "does not specify which encoding to use" should display with ISO8859-1. Now, I must really do something else. ** Attachment added: "UTF-8 atilf Mozilla Firefox 3 Beta 5.png" http://launchpadlibrarian.net/14448856/UTF-8%20atilf%20Mozilla%20Firefox%203%20Beta%205.png -- Firefox can display a page with the wrong encoding https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/228988 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
