The html source specifies "<meta http-equiv="content-type"

the correct character set, but I'm not really up on the standard. So
it's not clear to me why Safari doesn't know the correct character set
without a menu action.
The server is probably sending the page as Unicode, not reading the meta
tags at all. If I really want to force certain headers (no-cache, say),
I send a PHP header command, because a lot of servers ignore the meta
tags.
