<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1">

embedded display is broken, open it in external konqueror works fine

Comment 1 Frank Osterfeld 2009-07-26 22:13:22 UTC

The feed contains wrong encoding information:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="iso-8859-1" ?>

The actual content is UTF-8. So the feed needs fixing.

Comment 2 Ferdinand Gassauer 2010-01-03 09:01:19 UTC

intersting enough (KDE 4.3.4)
open the feed in new tab or external browser (konqueror) uses correct charset, but the preview pane uses wrong charset

pls look at french and russian contributions

That feed has encoding=iso-8559-1 in the processing instruction, but is actually encoded in UTF-8. So the feed must be fixed to have the special characters (I see spanish, but french and russian?) displayed correctly.
