132546 - Turkish characters in form entry is shown incorrectly

Status: VERIFIED INVALID

(Core :: Internationalization, defect)

Description

[Ahmet A. Akin]

For producing:
Go to Google, 
write "tIrtIl Seker" (Not, you may need a turkish keyboard letters "I" in
"tIrtIl" is actually "i" without point, letter "S" in "Seker" is actually a "s"
with a point down, read as "sh") in the search form area.

When the result are come you see the search words as "tırtıl
şeker" in search form area.

i believe it is releated with Bug 117422

Char set: ISO8859-1

Ahmet, If you try the same thing on IE (Encoding : Western ISO)  you get the
same result, I guess the reason is, if you submit Turkish character on a web
site with default encoding is non-Turkish you get converted characters.
 So, first change your encoding to Turkish then submit the form, you will get
the correct result.
But I dont know whether this behaviour is correct. Should this bug be marked as
"invalid" ??

And another point is , if you do such a search in google, it does the correct
search, you just lost the characters if encoding is non-turkish.

Very similar with bug 125034, but that one is linux only.

there are no such turkish characters in ISO-8859-1, change it to ISO-8859-9 and
you should be able to work 
mark this as invalid. this is a user error
