ნუ გაებმებით თაღლითების მახეში. აქ არავინ უნდა მოგთხოვოთ ტელეფონზე დარეკვა, შეტყობინების გაგზავნა ან პირადი მონაცემების გაზიარება. რამე საეჭვოს შემჩნევისას გთხოვთ გვაცნობოთ „დარღვევის მოხსენებით“.

Firefox 4 does not autodetect correctly character encoding. Tested with UTF-8 plain text after setting View -> Character Encoding -> Autodetect -> Universal. Still opens it as Western (ISO-8859-1). Universal is at the top in Cutomise List dialog. (The 3.6 semantics were much better. )

Here is a UTF-8 file to test: http://void.net.ua/txt/RCS.txt (tested locally).

I do not have a problem with the site that you posted.

That doesn't look like a good example because the server sends a content type in the HTTP response headers (Content-Type: text/plain; charset=utf-8). To get such problems you need a link where the servers doesn't send an encoding and there is also not a meta tag that specifies an encoding (doesn't apply to a text file as in this case).

Thank you for replying. You have a point. Yes, I tested it locally. Changing the post...
