Default charset #136

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

Standards says that the default encoding of a web application, in case it is 
not explicitly expressed, should be ISO-8859-1. Why don't stick with this? 
get rid of UTF-8.

Steps to solving all character encoding problems in JS/CSS docs:
1. Convert docs to UTF-8 (if not already)
2. Send charset=utf-8 in Content-Type

If only every problem had such a straightforward solution.
