Certain web sites in Korean are showing broken characters as below URL. Other certain sites are happening the same. Korean added in the option. And the system is based on Win 7 English version with Korean language selected in Control panel/Language. Other Korean sites are showing without problems.

Firefox seems to have a problem to detect the encoding and uses ISO-8859-1 instead of EUC_KR that is send: Content-Type: text/html; charset=EUC_KR


You can try View > Character Encoding > Auto-Detect > Universal , that works for me.

Hello, Anybody answers my problem? I've tested in Firefox 4.0 Beta 3 but it's still happening. It would be strong stopper for Korean to use Firefox as an alternative of IE. In Korea IE occupies over 90% of browser market share but because the policy and government is driving Web compatibility Users are seeking alternatives. So unless this language broken issue is solved Firefox could loose the market.
