For WWW pages, there is a standard way to announce the codepage used,
cf. <http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-html40/charset.html>, particularly
<http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-html40/charset.html#h-5.2.2>. You would be well
advised to comply with standards, so every browser would interpret your
pages as intended.

Another advice: check your pages with <http://validator.w3.org/> for
compliance with HTML syntax. Again, you should comply with standards,
so every browser would interpret your pages as intended.

Best wishes,
   Otto Stolz
