145218 - charset in meta tag behaves strange inside frames

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 132006

(Core :: Internationalization, defect)

Description

[c.h.ip]

From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.0rc2) Gecko/20020510
BuildID:    2002051009 (1.0RC2)

Charset in meta tag, inside frames, exhibits a strange problem in RC2.

Some characters becomes rubbish characters for the first time loading of a web
page.  One need to manual invoke "View->character coding->trad. Chinese" to correct.

Such behaviour won't happen if I run 1.0rc1 instead of 1.0rc2.  

Also note that unders Windows, such behaviour won't happen.

My OS: Mandrake 8.1 (installed with Traditional Chinese)

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. browser full.mingpaonews.com with RC2, see the first page.

Actual Results:  Some characters on the first page (inside a frame) became rubbish.

Expected Results:  The browser should handle the charset well, as fonts have
been installed and used.

I've produced a screenshot to illstrate the problem.

Two version of Mozilla is running side-by-side and browsing the same page
(full.mingpaonews.com), the left one is 1.0RC2 that exhibits the problem, and
the right one is 1.0RC1, looks good.

It sounds another dup of bug 132006 - on RC2 builds, when I set auto-detect
Chinese will see this, but when I set auto-detect Off will get this pape display
correctly.

I checked it on latest trunk build on linux and windows, can not reproduce this
problem.  Unless I select auto-detect SimpChinese, but I guess it's not a good
option to select this tradChinese page as auto-detect SimpChinese.
