Summary: I18N - add encoding information into file while saving it not in default

Description Jindrich Sedek 2008-02-26 15:49:51 UTC 
If html/jsp contans some unmappable characters and user chooses - save in
UTF-8, the meta tag content is not modified, in general the info about the UTF-8 is not saved anywhere. So next file
opening causes the characters are loaded incorrectly by the original encoding. User CANNOT fix this in netbeans in an
elegant way (workaround=change project encoding to UTF-8 :-((( ). It looks like the right solution would be to comment
the original meta tag in the file and put the the UTF-8 encoding.

This old bug may not be relevant anymore. If you can still reproduce it in 8.2 development builds please reopen this issue.

Thanks for your cooperation,
