stefan: would you kindly attach the file?
i want to use javascript text files saved in unicode on my homepage. these files should not contain escape sequences ("\uxxxx")...
stefan: are you doing "Save As Charset" and selecting UTF-8?

Attached file testfile
sorry for my late answer... btw: i dicovers another bug: <HTML> <HEAD> <TITLE>Catalog</TITLE> <META http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8"> </HEAD> <BODY> <script language="JavaScript"> <!-- document.write('<A href="\u30C3\u30C3\u30C3\u30C3 \u30C3/index.htm"><B>testlink</B></A>'); //--> </script> </BODY> </HTML> doesn't seem to work.
???????????????[zo-ri-tsu-se-se-se-se-se-se-se...] in testfile displays correctly for me with Cyberbit fonts installed(instructions: http://www.mozilla.org/quality/smoketests/faq.html#international) in Milestone 0.9.5 although I did stumble on this by accident so it might be nice if instructions for obtaining these fonts were included in the release notes... The only other japanese support I have on my computer is my Japanese Word Processor which acts as a seperate program...
I can render your attached file correctly in my WinXP. It reads as [zo-ri-tsu-se-se-se-se-se-se-se...] :) stefan: I failed to see problems so far. Is this about "Saving File" or "Opening" file?
