Package: lynx-cur
Version: 2.8.8dev.15-2
Severity: normal

In a HTML file, if the UTF-8 encoding is specified only with a meta
line that appears after the title, e.g.

<title>Title with entity (&#233;) and UTF-8 (é)</title>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8">

in an HTML file (see attachment[*]), then this encoding is not taken
into account for the title. The title appears as:

  Title with entity (é) and UTF-8 (é)

The body is not affected.

Note: The HTML4 spec says "META declarations should appear as early
as possible in the HEAD element." but that's only a "should", and it
seems that there's nothing like that in the current HTML5 draft.

[*] I've used the application/octet-stream MIME type to avoid
automatic charset conversion by Mutt.
