This seems to exhibit the problem repeatedly :
(Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.9) Gecko/2008061015 Firefox/3.0)
display http://atilf.atilf.fr/tlf.htm
click "Entrez dans le TLF"
fill in "erreur" and click "Valider 1"
Select "ERREUR" (or any word), a window pops up.
Click on any link, e. g. "le TLFI" (*)
Now you have a window with a page containing two frames with incorrect encoding.
screen shot attached.
Open either frame in its own window.
Source: <head>...</head> no charset specified => iso-8859-1;
The file contains iso-8859-1 characters indeed but they are displayed using UTF-8.
THIS IS WRONG ENCODING DISPLAY WITHOUT MANUAL INTERVENTION.
(*) This "link" page displays correctly. It presumably contains iso-8859-1 like the rest.
BUT it's info says it was decoded with UTF-8.
However, when displaying its source (correctly), View|Encoding shows no selected encoding.
And when forcing any code (even UTF-8), the display gets totally wrong.
THIS IS WRONG ENCODING DISPLAY WITHOUT MANUAL INTERVENTION.
THIS IS TOTALLY WRONG.

I hope it's the same problem we all see randomly.
