Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 126266

(Bugzilla :: Bugzilla-General, defect)

Description

[Brian R. Gaeke]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; FreeBSD i386; en-US; rv:1.5a) Gecko/20030815
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.4) Gecko/20030624

If I enter a quip in bugzilla using the "xcin" X Input Method for Traditional
Chinese, it will appear to work, but then when I go to view the entire quip
list, it prints out entities e.g. (〹𐤲) instead of the Chinese
characters I entered.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Install xcin & libtabe
2. Log in with Traditional Chinese locale e.g. zh_TW.Big5 selected
3. go to ..../quips.cgi on your favorite bugzilla install
4. type something in Chinese into the text box
5. hit "add this quip" button.
6. Go back and click "view the whole quip list"

Actual Results:  
You will see the characters that you entered, displayed to you as entities
(ampersand pound 5-digit-number semicolon) instead of Chinese characters.

Expected Results:  
It should have displayed Chinese characters.
