Hi Khosri, The Content-Type header is set (correctly) to "text/html", like Jon said. There's no header in the response that says anything about the character set, but you can obtain this information from the entity itself: the HTML contains the character set inside the meta tag: <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=windows-1256">
See also http://www.w3.org/International/O-charset to get more information about all different possibilities to declare the character encodings. Kind regards, Stijn Deknudt.
