I was trying to validate some HTML I was writing by hand with http://validator.w3c.org by uploading the file from my hard drive. But I keep getting this message:
quote:
No Character Encoding Found! Falling back to UTF-8.
...SNIP...
The uploaded file was tentatively found to be Valid. That means it would validate as HTML 4.0 Transitional if you updated the source document to match the options used (typically this message indicates that you used either the Document Type override or the Character Encoding override).
and no matter what I try I can't seem to get it validated and searches have not turned out too helpful. My html header looks like
quote:
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-html40/loose.dtd">
<html>
<head>
<title>The Title!</title>
<META HTTP-EQUIV="HTML" CONTENT="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1">
</head>
The page will be in Polish which uses non-english characters (but it still latin based; it is not Cyrillic) so it seems that either UTF-8 or iso-8859-1 should be good candidates.
