Ouch. I tried my second, bottom procedure again and it no longer worked.
I had repeated, though, it but it's probably not repeatable enough.
Remember the problem occurs now and then for unknown reasons.
Anyway, whatever the repeatability, the picture I sent shows something that should never happen.

Firefox probably fails to always set ISO8859-1 as the starting encoding of a page.
(which can be changed later by HTTP or inside the page)
