Description Wilbert Berendsen 2005-11-14 07:47:17 UTC 
Version:           3.4.92 (using KDE 3.5 (RC1), Gentoo)
Compiler:          gcc version 3.3.5-20050130 (Gentoo Linux 3.3.5.20050130-r1, ssp-3.3.5.20050130-1, pie-8.7.7.1)
OS:                Linux (i686) release 2.6.14-gentoo

When navigating a site that uses utf-8 encoding, the encoding is lost when I go back in the site history. The utf-8 text is displayed as iso-8859-x (possibly my local encoding).

Try: http://sf.euweb.cz/ . Click on the name of an article, and then go back. The text is then shown all garbled.

I use kdelibs from 3.5.0_rc1.
Comment 1 Wilbert Berendsen 2005-11-14 07:53:16 UTC 
I must say the site's html is buggy: there is a lot of banner-html before the real <html> element opens. Maybe that's the reason konqueror forgets the utf-8 encoding.
Comment 2 Andrey Golovizin 2005-11-30 11:11:59 UTC 
kde-3.5.0, got the same (mis)behaviour with linux.org.ru
Strange bug, indeed. Some sites with utf-8 encoding work as expexted (say, gentoo.ru), the others are broken (linux.org.ru, etc.)
Comment 3 Valery Kartel 2005-12-02 20:53:17 UTC 
The same since 3.5beta1 to 3.5 release.

there was no problem with 3.4 .. 3.3 .... anv lower versions ...

http://linux.org.ru  as example ...
Comment 4 Filip Papadopoulos 2005-12-07 01:18:36 UTC 
Yes i found the same problem with a Greek site  http://www.epe.org.gr/
If u follow a link and then press the "Back" button the encoding gets messed...
Note that the aforementioned site has Valid HTML and Valid CSS.
