This bug does not appear every time, and not on all webpages either (randomly). The thing is I got nordic characters set (at the character encoding). The bug is that pages that contain swedish chacters get's replaced with a ?. Instead of å,ä,ö. The page that does contain these ? won't replace the ? until I select view/chacter encoding/nordic, after this that pages auto-reloads and displays correctly. Reproducible: Sometimes Steps to Reproduce: 1.use the nordic character encoding (swedish) 2.visit swedish sites 3.ö,ä,å get's replaced with a ? until you select view/chacter encoding/nordic (ISO8859-10) Expected Results: displayed the swedish local chacters instead of a ?
