Note: This is a redirect issue ALIS is evaluating. Any redirected page will not 
auto-translate correctly.

What does "evaluating" mean?  Is Alis determining if they consider it a bug?
Or is Alis trying to fix it?

Comment 4

[Robert McIntosh]

ALIS is trying to fix this bug. It was said to be a problem with redirects. ALIS 
told us they already fixed relative paths, but are still working on a fix for 
absolute path redirects. As the above-referenced URL does not appear to 
redirect, I've asked them to re-evaluate this bug.

According to ALIS, it's a charset alias problem charset=x-sjis...
 
"...In that version of the server, we could only specify one charset per
language (As our server was initially meant to be dedicated to a single
site, it didn't cause much problems). To support this, we have introduced
charset alias instructions and charset autodetection. The same page works
fine with our staging server ATS2.7.1b. This bug status will turn to "Solved
but to be verified by QA" with most of the others..."

I tested this in 2000041206 Win32, 2000041207 Mac, and 2000041109 and 2000041213 
Linux build.  This page is translated into English in Win32 and Mac.  However,
in 2000041109 linux build, after you click on Gist button, the page is blank.
I need to reopen this.

We tested it and it works fine with this page. The bug seems related 
specifically to the Linux build. We can rule-out the code of the View|Translate 
function in navigator.js as the problem occurs later... when clicking GIST 
button. on the home page. Now, this GIST button calls quite a few Javascript 
functions to validate the URL, etc. We will download the LINUX build and start 
to test the page. I expect to find a difference in the way the LINUX build is 
interpreting Javascript. We will do the following: 1- report on the 
Javascript lines that cause the problem 2- isolate a small test case to describe 
the bug more precisely 3- Try to change the Javascript code in the page so that 
the LINUX build can understand correctly the Javascript that it reads. 

Stay tuned for new developments... we are working on it.

Moving to "other" Component temporarily whilst I delete AutoTranslate component 
in Bugzilla and move this to Bugsplat.

Putting on [AUTO TRANSLATE] to grab this from Other component in a bit.
