Description Candid Dauth 2005-01-16 20:14:59 UTC
Version:           3.3.91 (using KDE KDE 3.3.90)
Installed from:    SuSE RPMs

When I view a document's source code, KWrite shows it in the system default charset. So if the page is for example encoded in UTF-8 and the system's default charset is ISO-8859-1, some special characters aren't displayed correctly, for example «ü» as «Ã¼», in the source code.
Comment 1 Thiago Macieira 2005-01-17 02:08:18 UTC
There currently is no way for konqueror to tell kwrite what charset to use on opening a file, or is there?

This is a Konqueror "bug", since kwrite can open a remote webpage with the correct charset. This is happening because View Source opens the local cache file, where the Content-Type information has been lost. What's more, Konqueror parses HTML tags and headers to find the charset, which KWrite can't and won't do.

Bug still present in kde 4 svn trunk r793287
To test, visit the following website: http://www.unicode.org/fr/
and open the document source code.

Is this report still relevant for Konqueror 4.8.4 or later? If yes, please update the version field, otherwise close this bug.
Thank you.
