Details

This regularly happens for lxr/bonsai which seem not to include charset information. It seems that including less than 5 ü or ä characters triggers EUC-JP (not sure about other characters). Steps to reproduce: 1. Visit data:text/html,%3Ctitle%3EEUC-JP%20instead%20of%20UTF-8%3C%2Ftitle%3E%0A%C3%BC%20%C3%A4%20%C3%BC%20%C3%A4 2. Visit data:text/html,%3Ctitle%3EUTF-8%20correctly%3C%2Ftitle%3E%0A%C3%BC%20%C3%A4%20%C3%BC%20%C3%A4%20%C3%BC Actual result: The first file is auto-detected as EUC-JP the second as UTF-8. Expected result: Both files are auto-detected as UTF-8. For comparison: IE6 behaves as expected whereas Opera 9 renders both documents as ISO-8859-1.
