139539 - Can't display Chinese character correctly in 'window title'

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 138916

(Core :: Internationalization, defect)

Description

[XinLi Tan]

This problem was originaly logged as bug 138916. At the time when I file that bug, I 
pickup "Brower Localization" as the Product.  3 days. No body care to assign it to the right 
component. Surprised.

Anyway, I file the bug again. 

Here we go.

I'm using Mozilla1.0 CR1 on Win2k.


Problem:
Quite surprised to see that the chinese character in the tilte of the Mozilla
window was previously displayed correctly (this was really the nice feature that
surpass IE)now was garbled -- Chinese characters are displayed as bunch of
question marks.

To reproduce:
1. Lanuch Mozilla 1.0 CR1
2. go to: http://www.sina.com.cn/ and select some chinese articles, for example:
http://sports.sina.com.cn/n/2002-04-20/20263818.shtml
3. Observe the title 

Mark this one as "cirtical", there must be some encoding problem in Mozilla.

i don't think this is a mozilla bug. it's probably due to the fact that your
system font is not a chinese font. if you view the same page in ie you will
likely get the same behavior (i did) -- the title not displaying to characterss
not found in the font.

Don't compare to IE.  Likey I said, that's the feature in previous Mozilla (0.9.9 at least) 
that surpass IE.
I just want this feature back to 1.0.

It works for me on WoinXP-Simplified Chinese.

If you are using a non-SimpChinese OS to read SimpChinese page, you won't able
to read title correct - bug 9449.

Verified as dup.
