[Bug 50213] Re: misinterpreted chars with file:// links in iso8859-x encoded docs

I strongly suspect you've accidentally saved that file in UTF-8 rather
than ISO-8859-15; those are /exactly/ the characters that should result
from interpreting UTF-8 text as ISO-8859-15.

Using the appropriately-dashed version, saved with ISO-8859-15 encoding,
here's the results I get: all three show correctly on Firefox (v2.0.0.3)
via both Apache (serving it with a charset param of utf-8; the http-
equiv overrides it for Firefox) and
file:///home/micah/Desktop/test.html. Ditto for Konqueror 3.5.5. (I'm on
Edgy Eft).

I'm not sure how two-slash file:// ought to work, as the specs require
that file:// be followed by an absolute pathname, IIRC.
