English, you will need to add a filename extension to your pages. The table below
show the list of available character sets that our server accepts.

File naming method
For example, if you needed to use the "WINDOWS-1251" charset then you would name your pages
like this:
yourpage.html.win-1251
Please note:
Non default charsets may not be used on an index page.
.htaccess method
The character set for your entire site or a certain directory can be changed by creating an ".htaccess"
file in the "htdocs" directory or one of it's subdirectories. Here is an example of this file for the
Hebrew character set:
AddDefaultCharset win-1255
