User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.2; en-US; rv:1.9.0.8) Gecko/2009032609 Firefox/3.0.8 (.NET CLR 3.5.30729) Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.2; en-US; rv:1.9.0.8) Gecko/2009032609 Firefox/3.0.8 (.NET CLR 3.5.30729) This bug occurs only after Firefox has run for a long time, such as 24 hours. Bug goes away once the browser is restarted. This is the second time that I noticed the bug. DESCRIPTION: My site uses charset auto-detection and language auto-detection. The Chinese characters in the title bar (of the window) suddenly appear as ??????????. I have double-checked that there is no bug with the code of my site. I cannot reproduce the same problem with MSIE. Reproducible: Sometimes Steps to Reproduce: 1. run Firefox for at least a day or longer 2. have multiple tabs open 3. you may try viewing my site https://www.dezzignz.com/zh-tw/ Actual Results: characters in titlebar appear as ???????????? Expected Results: DEZZIGNZ 香港著名平面設計和網站建設公司
The titlebar is managed by windows itself AFAIK
Does the problem start when you open a PDF? See bug 512032.
I have never tried it with PDF. I have duplicated the same problem with Windows 7 (64-bit). It really seems that it is Windows problem and not problem of Firefox. However, Google Chrome may not have the problem, I suspect. Yes, I wish that Firefox was as good as Chrome!
Reporter, please retest with Firefox 3.6.12 or later in a fresh profile (http://support.mozilla.com/kb/Managing+profiles). Also update your plugins (flash, adobe reader, java, quicktime, silverlight, etc.) Go to the developer's website and download the latest version from there. If you no longer see this issue, please close this bug as RESOLVED, WORKSFORME. If you do see the bug, please post a comment.

OK. I have recently (less than 2 weeks ago) seen the bug again on my Windows 7 (64-bit) Firefox machine. FF might have been 3.6.12, although I am not 100% positive. I will try to recreate the condition again and post the results here.
