Well, thank you both!
So I´m sure it was a problem of literally encoding the file.
Thanks again;

You need to make sure the file is actually encoded as UTF-8.  You can't
just label it as such and expect it to be so.  That's like getting a
block of milk chocolate, sticking a dark chocolate label on it and then
wondering why it still tastes like milk chocolate!

As for the meta element, there is a much better way.  Using the meta
element for specifying the encoding in HTML is considered bad practice
and it will not work in XHTML.

Latin-1 refers to ISO-8859-1.  Windows actually uses Windows-1252 as its
default encoding, which is a superset of ISO-8859-1.
