Description:
When editing pages on Serbian Wikipedia, some users can't insert/see Cyrillic characters. Instead of Cyrillic characters, "unknown" characters appear in the main text area (see picture[1]).
It goes both for already present text and for text being inserted.
When edit is saved, everything is displayed correctly. Also, if copy/pasted out of edit area, everything is displayed correctly.
All users that reported this issue seem to be using Google Chrome. I'm experiencing it as well: Chrome version 16.0.912.77 m, localized to Serbian, OS is Windows XP.
It happens to both logged and anonymous users.
Some users report that this problem is intermittent (it appears and disappears).
The problem seem to be present only in main text area.
This is very serious problem because Serbian language uses Cyrillic alphabet and both logged in and anonymous users that have this issue can't edit Wikipedia.
