Suppose we have HTML page written in UTF-8 (server sends "Content-Type: text/html; charset=utf-8") which referrs to CSS in external file on the same server. It's clearly illustrated in http://dev.gentoo.org/~neysx/wwwgo/index.xml.html which referrs to http://dev.gentoo.org/~neysx/wwwgo/css/main.css . Later is also in UTF-8, but the server doesn't specify the "charset" part of Content-Type header. According to the CSS/2.1 specs, correct behaviour would be to: 1) An HTTP "charset" parameter in a "Content-Type" field (or similar parameters in other protocols) - not usable in this case 2) BOM and/or @charset (see below) - also doesn't apply 3) <link charset=""> or other metadata from the linking mechanism (if any) charset of referring stylesheet or document (if any) - this should be used, but isn't - se below 4) Assume UTF-8 - fallback, but should *not* happen as it would break a lot of pages, IMHO So, to the point 3 - you should use the same encoding as the HTML page has, which is UTF-8, in this case. But current behavior is that if you have set (in browser prefs) anything else as a "default codepage", it is used, which is bad. Why is this important? In that particular case, external CSS sheet is used to add "content:" property to the links in the left hand column, which should result in a nice arrow before each link. But because konqueror uses other encoding for CSS file parsing, user doesn't see arrow, but some garbage characters. I can provide screenshot. 346674 1 neysx 2005-05-31 16:14:12 +0000 Using @charset at the beginning of the css had no effect on konqueror Escaping the character worked but the small triangle appears as a thin box as if the character was not defined. I tried various fonts with the same result. Using a dot instead of a triangle worked. a.altlink:before {content:"\2022\20"; color:#7a5ada;} OK a.altlink:before {content:"\2023\20"; color:#7a5ada;} Not OK Escaped char or utf-8 encoded css works with firefox a.altlink:before {content:"‣ "; color:#7a5ada;} OK in ff 349816 2 ewoerner 2005-06-12 20:04:52 +0000 *** Bug 107287 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** 360951 3 maksim 2005-07-28 00:43:58 +0000 *** Bug 109735 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** 380311 4 maksim 2005-10-09 21:51:23 +0000 *** Bug 114143 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** 444057 5 kde 2006-06-03 20:59:39 +0000 SVN commit 547892 by carewolf: Let stylesheets inherit the charset of their parent document or stylesheet.
