  1. <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8">
  2.  
Why Still need to remind stupid IE to encode the page with utf-8. Why it still sometime choose SHIFT-JIS?

There's nothing wrong with it. Check to make sure your server is not already setting the charset ahead of time.

Because that's IE, my friend. I could go on for days about how terrible IE is and how many hours of pain and suffering it has caused me.

But I won't, because I presume that the Quick Reply has a character limit (LOL).

@drhowarddrfine was right: there is nothing wrong with your code. I would bet my bottom button that this is just a weird IE quirk. What version were you testing with?
