The charset issue with Ajax has been discussed in a few past threads as well. To be honest I've never really looked into it, but based on a search on Google, the solution seems to vary, from calling:


httprequest.overrideMimeType('text/html; charset=windows-1254')

before the Ajax request is sent inside the .js file, to using scripting to do a search and replace of the offending characters.

The first suggestion might be worth a try. Inside ajaxtabs.js, make the following change (in red):


if (page_request.overrideMimeType)
httprequest.overrideMimeType('text/html; charset=windows-1254')
var ullist=targetobj.parentNode.parentNode.getElementsByTagName("li")


Test this out in Firefox to see if it makes a difference.
