I used to open my chinese text file using firefox, it will auto detect the chinese text. However lately it will give weird encoding. I tried to turn on auto detect for chinese under view, but there is no more chinese language under auto detect. Is my firefox problem??

Hello engkhsky, 3 chinese exist in View > Character encoding > Simplified (GBK), Simplified (GB18030), Traditional, but not in Auto-Detect section. Do you have it?

There is now this pref:
