Re: [Bug-librejs] Encoding problems on some cp1251-encoded pages

[Loic J. Duros]

Hi LRN:

Thanks for the report. Subsequent to our discussion on IRC, I'm posting the bug report just submitted to Firefox:
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=848840

Thanks for figuring out the root of the issue.

I'm using latest LibreJS (4.9.2) with Nightly on W32.

It seems that LibreJS is responsible for mangling non-ascii text on
some pages. Whether LibreJS allows or disallows scripts on the page is
irrelevant - it's mangled either way (although the way it's mangled
changes slightly). Disabling LibreJS extension completely also removes
the mangling.

Page that shows no problems: [1]
Page that is mangled: [2]

Both pages do use cp1251 explicitly.

I've tried both the latest LibreJS extension available via Firefox
search-and-install feature, as well as Bazaar r1067 (the dev
subdirectory) - same thing.
