           Summary: Browser - Chinese characters shown as garbage on some
                    web pages
           Product: WebKit
           Version: 525.x (Safari 3.1)
          Platform: PC
               URL: http://www.yesky.com
        OS/Version: Windows XP
            Status: NEW
          Keywords: InTSW
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: Page Loading
        AssignedTo: webkit-unassigned at lists.webkit.org
        ReportedBy: hong.a.zhao at nokia.com

1. Go to www.yesky.com and wait until the site is loaded completely.
2. Type some strings in search bar on top of the page and press search.

Expected outcome:
Search result is displayed.

Actual outcome:
Garbage webpage is displayed, Chinese characters are shown as garbage

Note: This page works fine with IE, Firefox, using Etheral to compare the http
request data to server with IE, can't see the difference. After the page is
loaded (which shows the garbage characters instead of Chinese), in the same
page, charset is set as gb2312, except it doesn't use this charset. But if I
save the page, and reload from the saved file, the page is shown as Chinese.
Looks like it takes http encoding instead charset inside the page.
