92379 - charset in Content-Type causes <script src=""> to fail

Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

(Core :: DOM: Core & HTML, defect, P1)

Description

[Hixie (not reading bugmail)]

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
  Look at the attachment. It has a Content-Type meta tag:
     <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8">
  ...and links to this external script:
     http://ad.uk.doubleclick.net/adj/homepage.av.monaco.fr/fullbanner;sz=468x60

ACTUAL RESULTS
  Browser spins, apparently blocked trying to download the script.

EXPECTED RESULTS
   IE6-pre renders the page fine.

This broke out of Bugscape bug number 7921.

Attachment: Test case - page should display an advert and the word "PASS".

Hmmm.  Works fine for me on my Linux debug trunk build.  But assigning to DOM
Other component.  (Who owns META-charset reload issues?)

Maybe this is a 0.9.2ec-specific bug?

Hmm, works fine using a commercial Netscape 6.1 build, investigating...

I've been trying to reproduce this with a branch build for a few days now, tried
everything I could think of but I'm unable to reproduce the problem, it always
works for me.

Marking WORKSFORME, please reopen and tell me how to reproduce this if this is
still a problem.
