Ok... i found the solution: I had to add following META as well to the generated html:
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type"
content="application/vnd.ms-excel; charset=utf-8" />
</head>

Onderwerp: wrong encoding used when opening xml file with encoding utf-8
Hi all,
I'm generating an html table using Chinese characters and i set the encoding
and mimetype as follows:
var response = cocoon.response;
response.setContentType("application/vnd.ms-excel; charset=utf-8");
response.setHeader(
"Content-Disposition",
"attachment; filename=" + id + ".xls"
);
cocoon.sendPage(
"chemicalcontent/excel/" + rohs + "/" + id + ".xls"
);
When previewing the html table in the browser it displays the chinese
characters ok. But when i click the download link and i open the file with
excel, it always takes Western European as charset.. I can manually change that
and reload the file but am I missing something or is excel unable to open an
xml file using the correct encoding?
I know this question is a bit of topic but maybe somebody else ever faced and
solved this issue.
Kind regards,
Robby Pelssers
