I have just received Firefox 2.0.0.12 and it
displays correctly with ISO 8859-1 on Mac. But
there is still an error somewhere, since the
browser 'thinks' that it is encoded in Unicode
and you have to reset 8859-1 every time. I still
cannot make it work with other browsers.

It works for me on a Mac (10.4.11) with Safari
and Firefox if I set the browser's encoding to
'ISO 8859-1' [Safari: View > Text Encoding >
Western (ISO Latin-1) / Firefox: View >
Character Encoding > Western (ISO-8859-1)]. By
default, Safari and Firefox seem to choose
Unicode (UTF-8), which gives you the question
mark-symbols where there should be umlauts and
other higher ASCII-characters.

Just to say that I have the same problem. A colleague tells me that
on his PC with Firefox and ISO 8859-1 encoding it is OK. The same
combination on Mac does not work. In fact, no matter what I do in
Firefox, Safari or Omniweb on my Mac, I cannot get it to display
correctly. Unicode would be useful.

On kUbuntu, Firefox, Konqueror and ELinks all
seem to work, once you've changed the encoding.
