Go to http://trangnhat.net/ 2. Hover mouse to link "Tin chuyên ngành - Báo chí" >>Second tab in the middle of the page 3. Observe the content popped up The file is sent by the server with just 'Content-Type: text/html' so that we have to honor what's in the file (meta charset). Now I wonder why Firefox does not honor that in this case. Perhaps, it's coming through XHR and Firefox always interprets that as in UTF-8 (depending on how it's pulled). The html page loaded separately ( http://trangnhat.net/chuyenmuc/tinchuyennganh.htm ) is interpreted as windows-1252 by Firefox and is garbled. The html snippet in the main html is as following. The second <li> corresponds to the middle tab in the main page. <div><ul id="maintab" class="shadetabs"> <li class="selected"><a href="#default" rel="ajaxcontentarea">Tin T&#7913;c hàng ngày</a></li> <li class=""><a rel="ajaxcontentarea" href="chuyenmuc/tinchuyennganh.htm">Tin chuyên ngành - Báo chí</a></li> <li class=""><a rel="ajaxcontentarea" href="chuyenmuc/news.htm">International News</a></li> </ul> <div id="ajaxcontentarea" class="contentstyle" style="width: 607px; height: 200px"> 130747 1 ap 2009-07-09 15:15:07 -0700 Per XMLHttpRequest spec, it is correct behavior to look inside HTML responses for META, see <http://www.w3.org/TR/XMLHttpRequest/#text-response-entity-body>. Apparently, Firefox does not implement this. As an aside, this page is particularly buggy - its title and body are in different encodings, as you can see in Safari or Firefox by opening it directly.
