The meaning of "charset" should be clear in this context, but it has nothing to do with languages specified in SPANs. >From the HTML 4 W3C spec: The "lang" attribute > specifies the base language of an element's attribute values and > text content.

So it should be absolutely legal to have charset ISO-8859-7 and French language applied for a block of HTML.
