Yes, and if there was a [meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html; charset=iso8859-1" /] tag in the HTML file's [head] section, then (at least some versions of) IE will change the charset to be windows-1252 when you save the document. I wish I could find where I originally read this, but I can't anymore. :-( It seemed to be that either Microsoft didn't want people using the ISO charset name in their own pages (but rather windows-1252), or they're just really, really stupid. Moral of the story: "File -> Save Page As" *CAN* modify the document!
