Follow-up to bug 261929 When a local file is referred to in an html document in an encoding different from the local file system encoding, it cannot be opened because the encoding of the document (instead of the file system encoding) is used for the file URL (my comments - bug 261929 comment #19 and bug 263750 comment #17 - seem to have been incorrect) regardless of the value of 'network.standard-url.encode-utf8'. With a patch I'm gonna upload, whatever the document encoding may be, file URLs will be in escaped UTF-8 and the file system encoding will be used only when interacting with the local file system (as long as net_GetXXX helpers are used)
sorry for bug spam. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 278166 ***
