Build: 07-15 1.0.1 branch build with all platforms. Steps: 1. Create a new profile and launch browser. 2. Load page(This page can be loaded by click the link in home.netscape.com/zh/cn): http://www.zdnet.com.cn/news/internet/story/0,2000079768,39035221,00.htm - this with gb2312 meta charset page load fine. 3. Click on those comments links in the buttom of the page. Result: Load display garbled page (no meta charset), set charset auto-detection to Universal, Chinese, SimpChinese still get garbled page. Auto-dection works in some other cases, e.g. directly load a non meta-charset page www.f10.com.cn...etc.

This website hard chop gb2312 string for titles. Some gb2312 characters was cut 2 piece, and only the first part available on the page. Those partial character failed in code scheme verification. It is not a problem of our charset detector.

bobj: * Send me any sites which do not work without charset menu (e.g., ZDNet China feedback) ftang: I don't believe this is the true case. If you set your default encoding to gb2312 from the pref, and set the auto detector to universial. And then open a new window to view those page. I can always see the in chinese ylong: It is true. There are some problems in their web site, please see details in bug: http://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=157605 however, this bug happen when you DOES NOT set the default charset in pref to GB2312, if you set it and open a new window, then it should work.
