Many of my pages (forum pages and pages which have forum SSI) are not indexed correctly by Google. Although they use Windows-1253, Google forces ISO-8859-1 encoding in its indexing and its cache. I have checked sites using the same forum software (SMF) and this does not appear to happen.
To test this please check
cache:http://www.translatum.gr
and cache:http://www.translatum.gr/forum/index.php
and compare with
cache:http://www.cyprusgreens.org/neoi/index.php
In www.translatum.gr and http://www.translatum.gr/forum/index.php cache ISO-8859-1 appears in the google cache header; something which does not apply to the cache:http://www.cyprusgreens.org/neoi/index.php site. The funniest bit is that in some of my forum posts, Google gets the encoding right! (For example cache:http://www.translatum.gr/forum/index.php/topic,1302.0.html )
MSN does not appear to have a problem with these pages. Any ideas?
