The HTTP headers say UTF-8: HTTP/1.1 200 OK Date: Thu, 29 Aug 2013 07:31:25 GMT Server: Apache Last-Modified: Thu, 29 Aug 2013 04:44:38 GMT ETag: "e74073-a7a-c36f5980" Accept-Ranges: bytes Content-Length: 2682 Connection: close Content-Type: text/html; charset=UTF-8 <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//w3c//dtd html 4.0 transitional//en"> <html><head> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=windows-1252"> <meta name="Author" content="Ken Fletcher"> <meta name="GENERATOR" content="Mozilla/4.74 [en] (Win98; U) [Netscape]"> <title>Test Insert Symbols</title> <meta content="Seamonkey 2.20 Composer - Insert - Characters & Symbols 27 August 2013" name="description"> </head> The meta header should override it.
