Which "Content-Language" and "charset" settings ?
Hello,
which settings should I set on these code, for an English / American site ?
<meta http-equiv="Content-Language" content="?r">
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=???">
Thanks in advance,

I use:
lang and xml:lang set to "en" and charset to "utf-8"
Other charsets will work.John

Problem is that my site may contains some foreign character and sign like " ' " directly past in the html code instead of being converted to code... and in those case it causes some problems.
Isn't there a charset that will allow the widest characters possible ?
Would charset=windows-1252 be a good choice ?
Cordially,
Koros
