http://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/show_bug.cgi?id=2690 Summary: Direct Input always parses with UTF-8 encoding no matter what Product: Validator Version: 0.7.1 Platform: All OS/Version: All Status: NEW Keywords: Usability Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: Parser AssignedTo: link@pobox.com ReportedBy: Dominik@Jungowski.de QAContact: www-validator-cvs@w3.org This is a bug I noticed since the 0.7.1 Release of the Validator: I use Firefox together with Web Developer. When I hit Tools -> Validate Local HTML I get the error: "Sorry, I am unable to validate this document because on line 440 it contained one or more bytes that I cannot interpret as utf-8 (in other words, the bytes found are not valid values in the specified Character Encoding). Please check both the content of the file and the character encoding indication." When copying the source and validating manually the validation works but in both cases the validator says "Encoding: utf-8" although I have defined ISO-8859-1 in the XHTML Header. When uploading the file and parsing it by URL the validator detects the document correctly as iso-8859-1. This is pretty annoying since I cannot use the Web Developer feature anymore for local files and have to manually validate them by direct input.
