Bug 14166 – Korean characters are not displayed correctly on Safari Windows.

• Status: RESOLVED
• Resolution: FIXED
• Component: Text

[Dae San Hwang]

When browsing Korean web sites, Korean characters are not displayed (at all) on Safari Windows. However, Chinese/Japanese sites have no such issues.

This is a show stopper for Korean Windows users. I would be really happy, if WebKit team fixes this problem soon. :)

FWIW, this works for me on an US English Windows XP. What OS version are you using?

[Robert Blaut]

Probably duplication of a bug #14086

I'm using Korean Windows XP. I can confirm that this is a universal problem on Korean Windows(XP/2000/Vista). This has been reported on newspapers in Korea.

Can you try a nightly build and see if the fix for 14086 solves your problem?

I can't seem to unzip the nightly build archive. Maybe something went awry with automatic build/zip process?

Try downloading it again.  We've seen the download stop prematurely on occasion.

I've tried downloading 5-6 times already. Zip archives for r23540, r23553 seem to have corrupted. r23529 unzips successfully but the rendering problem is still there.

Copying bdash.  Confirmed that WebKit-SVN-r23553.zip is corrupt when downloaded.

Hrm.  Not sure what's up with the nightly coming down corrupted.  Can you try again now?

[Dae San Hwang]

Most recent nightly download(r23677) works fine and the rendering problem has finally gone away. Yay!
