Description Steffen Winterfeldt 2007-08-24 16:56:16 UTC

On a Czech translation site, it gets the encoding in the drop down
list wrong (Firefox has no problem here).

Confirmed.  The wrong encoding is in the javascript-populated completions list of recent searches.

Any progress on this? 

This bug makes Konqueror almost unusable. The bug is still present in OpenSuse 10.3. It must have been introduced in 10.3 since in 10.2 this worked just fine with the same version of KDE (3.5.7)!. 

Many web pages use javascript generated content. For example, Google's RSS reader www.google.com/reader. Feeds with non-ascii characters become quite unreadable. Another server to try is  www.mapy.cz (enter e.g. "Kateřinská" to the search field) and see something completelly different displayed there and beside the map after submit.

I understand this has been confirmed. Any chance of this being fixed soon with a fix available in updates?

no time on openSUSE 10.3 lifetime. please reopen if this still occurs with newer versions of opensuse. Sorry.
