Description Dominique Hazael-Massieux 2008-06-09 07:46:11 UTC 
When the checker gets a redirect, it reports an error when the encoding of the 30x response is not utf-8; the spec says not to do so:
"If the HTTP status indicates redirection (status code 3xx):
    Do not carry out tests on the response"

I've started to patch CharacterEncodingSupportTest.xsl to fix that bug, but I haven't tested it yet.

oops, wrong assignee
Comment 3 Dominique Hazael-Massieux 2008-06-09 08:53:07 UTC 
Tested in CachingTest/12, and seems to be worky.
