Re: Tao of string encodings (Re: Converting ASCII to UTF-8?)

WebCore also has an encoding sniffer that can be used. I's geared
towards HTML/XML contents, as I would expect Mozilla is. The HTTP
headers rarely contains correct encoding info (based on the limited
tests I did about a year ago), and I would assume that they both look
more to the contents than these headers.

I have posted about this a while ago:
