** Observed with 3/23/2000 Win32 build ** The charset and charset menu defaults are currently using the ones for the US build. These should be changed to reflect the localization. Here's what we should set: pref("intl.charset_menu.static","iso-2022-jp, shift_jis,euc-jp,iso-8859-1"); pref("intl.charset.detector","japsm"); There is one other item, of which I'm not sure. Cata, should there be any setting for this? if so, what value? pref("intl.charset_menu.cache", ""); The first 2 are definitely needed for jabeta1. The 3rd, we will wait for an answer from cata.

A couple of things about the charset menu defaults. 1. I'm recommding setting defaults for both Auo-detection and JA charsets. If the auto-detection is on, the 3 menus are not needed, but I think we should have them in case the user turns off auto-detection. 2. I'm including iso-8859-1 because that would be one other charset people might be using.

Needed for beta 1.

Note that charset names are case-sensitive and must be in lowercase.

Fergus, I reassign the bug to you. Please talk to Kat regarding the Prefs update.

We're excluding UTF-8 here, right?

Yes, you're right. There will be no UTF-8 on the static menu.

Unlike the charset names to be used for conversion, the names used for menu seem to be case-sensitive. So, please use exact values I suggested above.

Fixed in 0328 build

I verified this in 2000032417a JA build.
