problem with hebrew encoding
hi,
i have a new Hebrew wordpress site and i have problem with the encoding. the explorer is works just fine, but in Firefox the Hebrew is not looking good. the automatic encoding that Firefox choosing is "Hebrew visual (iso -8859-8) , and the Hebrew is wrong , but when im manually choose the encoding "Hebrew windows (iso-1255)" the Hebrew is looking just fine , but when im browsing the site i need to change the encoding manually every page.
is there a script that can "tell" Firefox to use the good encoding for all of this site? without effecting the explorer.

Can you post a link?
Which encoding uses the server to send that file? Are you using a meta tag to specify the encoding?
If the server sends an encoding then that encoding will prevail and Firefox will ignore an encoding specified in the page source.

The server doesn't send an encoding, so Firefox uses the default as specified in Tools > Options > Content for a start.
I see this in a meta tag: content="text/html; charset=HEBREW" and that is probably what makes Firefox choose the First Hebrew encoding from the list.
You can change that to:
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=windows-1255" />
how do i change it?

Do you have control over the page source?
You can see the current source in View > Page Source
You will notice this line.
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=HEBREW" />
You will have to find a way to change the charset to windows-1255
