Comment #2 on issue 9696 by [email protected]: EUC-JP is still not
compatible with IE and Firefox
http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=9696
No, that's not what IE/Firefox do. IE/Firefox do not do anything special
about 0x5C.
It's just translated to U+005C. It's MS (P) Gothic/MS (P) Mincho (Japanese)
and
Gulim(che)/Batang(che) (Korean) that have the glyph for Yen sign and the
glyph for
Korean Won sign for U+005C. These fonts are broken and are not
Unicode-compliant.
(the identity of U+005C IS back slash/reverse solidus and nothing else).
So, even in UTF-8 encoded pages, 0x5C is rendered as Yen/Won sign if one of
above
fonts is used.
Anyway, webkit bug 24906 should be fixed as proposed there (see my comment
there). I
meant to fix this webkit issue, but it got out of my radar.
I'll bring this along to be merged with our 2.0 branch.
