From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/4.76 [en] (Win98; I) BuildID: 20001121 When composing a message (or replying or forwarding a message) if you set the Character coding to "Simplified Chinese" the message sent is blank. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Start N6 on Hpux 2. Open Mail window 3. Click on "New Message" 4. From View->Character Character Coding choose Chinese Simplified (GB2312) 5. Type some text in the message and send it to yourself (or someone else) Actual Results: The message sent will be completely blank Expected Results: The message should not be blank, it should have the text of the message in it. Using the Character coding Chinese Traditional works. I found this when I tried to forward on a message from a co-worker. His original message was coded in Chinese Simplified.

I can reproduce this on the 11-21 and also this morning's build. Linux doesn't show this problem.

Re-assigning bug to shanjian@netscape.com

The problem seems caused by a problem in unicode converter for GB2312. Problem can be reproduced from editor directly. I should be able to find the fix pretty soon.

barrett, please confirm the bug, otherwise I could not change status of the bug.

Attempting to change the status of the bug.......

I can't change the status of the bug either. Is something wrong with Bugzilla?

Confirming this one, since people seem to have been trying to do that

On HP the byte order used is Big-endian. The original code assumed little-endian is used.
