Thank you. I have tried to set the header of the web page as you described, but I have seen that the special chars like şţăîâŞŢĂΠare not recognized correctly, even though the browser recognizes that the encoding is UTF-8.
However, I have seen that the page returned by Google is viewed correctly, but their page uses those byte order marks special chars that I don't know how to print. If I print only common ASCII chars, I have no problem printing them in UTF8. Thanks. I will subscribe to the other mailing list.
