It can't be done in a simple HTML file. The Apache config file (httpd.conf) is where to set the changes and that file usually allows the .htaccess file to set directives externally. What type of directives?
Thanks for the good reply. I need to use the AddCharset directive. I am a new to apache, my problem is that the server ignores the charset which I am supplying in the META tag of the HTML and as a result he does not identify the right characters.
You can use a scripting language to add headers if you'd like. For example at the very top of a PHP page: header("Content-type: text/html; charset=utf-8"); Then make the pages you need that on PHP pages instead of HTML pages
A scripting language would be appropriate for me. But my site is written in ASP. So perhaps an external file is the solution. If nevertheless you have a solution in ASP , I would appreciate it.

Thanks, Now I am getting more experience, I'll check the various solutions , which were introduced in this thread.
