Firefox trashes websites

skoal · 2004-09-07 21:28:06

There are certain websites that do not render at all using Firefox.

It mangles the entire screen and gives me Chinese Character Sets or some strange glyph sets.

There are others I have come across recently, but on rare occasion.

* I have the latest Firefox 0.9.3. I do not recall having this problem using Firefox 0.8.x. In addition, if I use Netscape, those same website render correctly.

Any ideas?

thanks.

Loads fine for me. I use 0.9.3.

works perfectly here

try View -> Character Encoding -> Western (ISO-8859-1) to manually set your encoding properly.

pfft! go figure...

I just tried it again, and it works now. I dunno. But, I didn't change a thing and it works fine now.

go figure. I've been gone for last couple of hours, came back, read your emails, tried it, and works fine now. I didn't change a thing. strange...

thanks for checking.
