Description moriramar 2011-11-27 16:11:53 UTC
Version:           unspecified (using KDE 4.7.2) 
OS:                Linux

When I open some pages with both simplified Chinese characters and traditional Chinese characters, some characters are not displayed correctly. Pages containing both Chinese characters and Japanese characters might cause this problem as well.

Personal guess:
These pages might be encoded in zh_CN.GBK or zh_CN.GB18030 (which contains more character encodings), while KWebkitPart might apply zh_CN.GB2312 (which is generally considered as a subset of GBK.).

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Install a font covering CJK characters. Bitstream Cyberbit, WenQuanYi Zen Hei, WenQuanYi Microhei or Droid is OK.
2. Make sure zh_CN.GBK, zh_CN.GB2312, zh_CN.GB18030, zh_CN.UTF-8 locales are available on the system.
3. Open Konqueror 4.7.2 and enable Webkit mode.
4. Go to http://www.acfun.tv/v/ac265957/ , which might be a little slow.

Actual Results:  
In the top bold title line of the page content, a black box with white question mark appears. In the next line, there are two black boxes seperated by a "W" character, followed by a "o" character.
Trying "View >> Encoding >> Simplified Chinese >>" any GB* locales does not solve the problem.
Opening this kind of pages has a chance to crash Konqueror.

Expected Results:  
No these black boxes and "W" or "o" characters in these two line.
KHTML can show this page well when encoding is set to "Simplified Chinese >> GBK" or "Simplified Chinese >> GB18030", which can be referred to.

I am using KWebkitPart 1.2.0 from Gentoo Portage
Comment 2 Dawit Alemayehu 2011-11-30 15:09:00 UTC
This is an upstream QtWebKit issue that can be reproduced with QtTestBrowser. 
Use the instructions at http://trac.webkit.org/wiki/QtWebKitBugs to file the bug report there.

Sorry that I forgot to put my upstream report here. I marked https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=73447 as a duplicated as yours.

Thanks.
