Bug Description
Binary package hint: firefox-3.0
The problem can be seen on thse two page :
http://
gopher:
Both are served with pygopherd server. But when firefox is connecting directly to the server with the gopher protocol, then the abstract of the files with upper case characters in their name are not displayed. Yet, these abstract can be seen in the source of the page.
When connected to pygopherd with http protocol, the abstracts are displayed properly.
The problem seems specific to firefox and not to the gopher protocol or server because other clients (e.g. lynx) display the abstracts correctly.

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. You reported this bug a while ago and there hasn't been any activity in it recently. We were wondering if this is still an issue for you. Can you try with the latest version of Firefox 3.0? Thanks in advance.
