Encoding question

luke14free
Hello,
I've got a simple problem with encoding:
every è ò à ù ì in my browser is seen as a strange A, a ? or a square, I know this depends on page encoding but this is my header...

  1. <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
  2. <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" xml:lang="it" lang="it" dir="ltr">
  3. <head>
  4. <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1" />
  5.  
Utf-8 and latin-1 aren't working too.
Have you got any hing about I solving this problem?
Thanks a lot,
Luke

Usually, you want the charset to say utf-8 I thought, even thought w3.org's validator says that some older browsers and computers might not see the webpage properly, or something like that.
