Description Weng Xuetian 2010-09-15 03:53:38 UTC
Version:           0.6 (using KDE 4.5.1) 
OS:                Linux

In some chinese web page, people would specify the encoding gb2312 in the meta of html, but the page actually use gb18030 as their encoding. This is just a case of Chinese local problem, but popular browser like firefox and chrome can handle this quite well. So would rekonq try to do some "hack" to fix this problem? Because such error in Chinese web page is quite common, we cannot expect every site to fix this by themself...

Additional information: gb2312 and gb18030 is Downward Compatible, so it's safe to force all gb2312 page to use gb18030, and all popular browser seems to do this.

Reproducible: Didn't try

Steps to Reproduce:
Open a web site like bilibili.us

Actual Results:  
Encoding error in the webpage

Expected Results:  
Web page is correctly displayed.

Sorry, I forget to choice the Reproducible option... It should be always.

I won't promise nothing, but I'll take a look and I'll see what is possible for 0.6.1..
