We need to add this to the faq: When a web browser is determining the charset to use to display a document it looks first at the HTTP Response headers, and only if no charset is indicated there does it look in the document itself, including the <meta> tags. So you need to check your apache config to see what charset you have apache configured to send (if any). Look in particular at the AddDefaultCharset directive. Removing that directive will sometimes solve the problem by causing the browser to use the <meta> tag. Regarding language packs, it is highly unlikely that that will make any difference. But it is difficult to tell for sure, since you haven't enven mentioned what operating system you are using.
