Hello That ist not a problem of Mozilla/Firefox. You are sending an incorrect http-header information. Test your page in: http://web-sniffer.net/ You send: Accept-Charset: ISO-8859-1,utf-8;q=0.7,*;q=0.7[CRLF] See: http://www.w3.org/International/questions/qa-headers-charset Delete utf-8 and it works. Best regards Wolfgang

The page claims to be UTF8 in the headers, but the data is not actually UTF-8 (it's ISO-8859-1, looks like). To evang to fix the server to not claim that the data is UTf-8 when it's not.

INCOMPLETE due to lack of activity since the end of 2009. If someone is willing to investigate the issues raised in this bug to determine whether they still exist, *and* work with the site in question to fix any existing issues, please feel free to re-open and assign to yourself. Sorry for the bugspam; filter on "NO MORE PRE-2010 TE BUGS" to remove.
