Change the encoding of your HTML pages by setting the encoding property
on the serializer:
<map:serializer logger="sitemap.serializer.html"
mime-type="text/html" name="html" pool-grow="4" pool-max="32"
pool-min="4" src="org.apache.cocoon.serialization.HTMLSerializer">
<buffer-size>1024</buffer-size>
<encoding>iso-8859-1</encoding>
</map:serializer>
The browser should recognize the encoding and send back data in
ISO-8859-1. I don't know if what I've just written is entirely correct,
but it sure saved my day when faced with a similar situation.
