Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 129337

(Firefox :: General, defect)

Description

[oskar]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Win98; rv:1.7.3) Gecko/20041001 Firefox/0.10.1
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Win98; rv:1.7.3) Gecko/20041001 Firefox/0.10.1

i noticed this bug reported on mozilla...now i tried firefox updated to
15/10/2004 on both windows 98/xp and debian sarge...the hebrew version of the
the site is still formatted incorrectly though its english version looks ok...

whats more i noticed that once i load the hebrew version into firefox i cant
return to the site front page which is www.globes.co.il where i can switch
languages...typing www.globes.co.il in the address bar takes me right to the
www.globes.co.il/serve...i opened ie just to see what was the url of english
version which is www.globes.co.il/serveen...

this site is a leading hebrew site for business affairs...i failed to persuade
at least two clients with a total of 20 stations to switch to firefox because of
this problem...

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. go to www.globes.co.il and chose hebrew version...u will hit
www.globes.co.il/serve
2. try then to go back to the front page by typing www.globes.co.il 
3. try to repeat the first two steps with windows explorer

Actual Results:  
the format of the hebrew version of the site is totally broken..its impossible
to return to the first page since firefox then persists in opening the hebrew
version of the site instead....

Expected Results:  
the first result is self obvious...on the second step firefox was supposed to go
back to the front page where a user can switch languages...

this site is a leading hebrew site for business affairs...i failed to persuade
at least two clients with a total of 20 stations to switch to firefox because of
this problem...

The reason you always come back to the Hebrew version of the site, is because
the site "remembers" what you have chosen initially (Hebrew) in a file (called a
"Cookie").
You should delete this Cookie or all Cookies to make it "forget" your
preference, and see the first page (where you can choose the language).
In Firefox you should open the menu "Tools" / "Options..."
Go to the "Privacy" tab, and click on the "Clear" button near the word "Cookies"
