             Summary: HTML meta tags ignored for encoding detection
                 Key: TIKA-952
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TIKA-952
             Project: Tika
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: general
    Affects Versions: 1.1
            Reporter: Tomas Safarik


Hello,

I have Czech HTML files that contain meta tag with correct encoding 
(windows-1250) but Tika ignores that and detects ISO-8859-2 and some times even 
ISO-8859-9 (turkish). Which causes wrong diacritics processing.

Shouldn't it rather respect what HTML meta tag declares?

HTML file header:
<meta http-equiv=Content-Type content="text/html; charset=windows-1250">

Tika detected metadata:
Content-Encoding: ISO-8859-2
Content-Type: text/html; charset=windows-1250

I am not sure if I am reporting correctly. I will be happy to provide more 
infromation if necessary.

Thanks,

Tomas
