I can't get this page to validate, because W3C says:<br />
<br />
<br />
I was not able to extract a character encoding labeling from any of the valid sources for such information. Without encoding information it is impossible to validate the document. The sources I tried are: <br />
<br />
The HTTP Content-Type field. <br />
The XML Declaration. <br />
The HTML "META" element. <br />
<br />
<br />
Where did I go wrong?<br />
<br />

only hosts do that and then it is not done right as it wil never validate.<br />
