Page Head. UTF8. Validation

[shapper]

Hello,

When I validate the HTML of my web site I get the following error:

No Character Encoding Found! Falling back to UTF-8.

How can I solve this?

And what information, including meta tags, should I add to my Page
Head?
Keywords, Author, Title, etc?

Thank You,
Miguel

By specificying the encoding. Check
http://www.w3.org/International/O-charset

And what information, including meta tags, should I add to my Page
Head?
Keywords, Author, Title, etc?

The <title> element is required by the syntax, and its content is more
important than anything else on the page. Be concise, be informative,
and avoid marketese and babbling there.

A <meta> tag duplicating the encoding information is useful for some
purposes.

Other <meta> tags are mostly pointless or worse.

<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8"/>

replace utf-8 with which ever code you desire to use.
