you don't have to have your files in utf-8 for it to work, just the
browser header.

although any utf-8 characters in your files will look funky. it just
depends where the content comes from... you could always use ®
for the (r) registered symbol for example.

i'd be more apt to figuring out how to make things work under utf-8
than trying to force something from utf-8 back to iso-8859-1...
personally :)
