Mozilla, Javascript and UTF-16

K

Krishna Kirti Das

I have an UTF-16 encoded HTML document that uses this to link to an
external javascript file:
<html><head>
<link href="myjsfile.js" type="text/javascript" charset="UTF-8">
</head>
<body>
..
..
..

Works fine in IE, but not in Mozilla, no matter what charset I try.
Has anyone run into this before? If so, what did you do that worked?

Why don't you use
<script type="text/javascript" src="myjsfile.js" charset=UTF-8"></script>
? I have never seen anyone use the link element to use script files.

That seems to work just fine. Thank you.
