My observation is that Opera6.0, MSIE6.0 and Mozilla0.9.8(Win)
interpret not only Win-1252 -tagged 8-bit HTML as Win-1252, but that
they interpret also US-ASCII and ISO-8859-1 -tagged 8-bit HTML as
Win-1252.
However, *earlier* versions of Mozilla *did* display US-ASCII /
ISO-8859-1 -tagged documents substituting the U+FFFD REPLACEMENT
CHARACTER for 8-bit data in the 80-FF / 80-9F ranges.
Why did Mozilla introduce this 'sloppy' practice in their newer
versions ... ?
