new to XHTML validation 1

rezzij · Sep 22, 2005

Having played with HTML for years, I am now trying to learn the rules for XHTML, and am stuck in validating an XHTML document. I get an error saying that my documents are "tentatively valid" based on my not including character coding information, like

Content-Type: text/html; charset=iso-8859-1

where can I include this?

thanks

in the <head> section of your document:

Code:

<head>

 <meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1" />

</head>

Rings a bell in hindsight, but would never have gotten the context right.
