Required Argument
- character-set
-
Specifies the character
set to use in the META tag for HTML output.
An example of an encoding
is ISO-8859-1. Official character sets for use on the Internet are
registered by IANA (Internet Assigned Numbers Authority). IANA is
the central registry for various Internet protocol parameters, such
as port, protocol and enterprise numbers, and options, codes and types.
For a complete list of character-set values, see
www.unicode.org/reports/tr22/index.html and
www.iana.org/assignments/character-sets.
A
character set is like an
encoding-value in this context. However,
character set is the term that is used to identify an encoding that is suitable
for use on the Internet.
