If the Firefox failed to display chinese word for a web page, make sure that the character encoding is correct.(under View --> Character encoding).
If the chinese web page still cannot display properly, then you need to install the 2 extension which are mozilla-firefox-locale-zh-tw and mozilla-firefox-locale-zh-cn.
Then restart Firefox and all the problem should be solved.
