If those don't work try UTF-8. What is the server returning in the http header?

what do you mean about the server returning in the http reader? In simple layman's terms if possible. Hypothetically at this point, I am in the set up where I am setting my serach box and then choosing the site encoding and eventually copying the code so I can paste it into my HTML. So would it simply be choosing the UTF-8? Thanks alot

and here is info that it returned:
HTTP/1.1 200 OK =>
Server => Microsoft-IIS/5.0
MicrosoftOfficeWebServer => 5.0_Pub
X-Powered-By => ASP.NET
Content-Location => http://www.danscartoons.com/index.html
Date => Sun, 22 Apr 2007 18:23:13 GMT
Content-Type => text/html
Accept-Ranges => bytes
Last-Modified => Sun, 08 Apr 2007 18:06:13 GMT
ETag => "5eecef9787ac71:170b"
Content-Length => 15122
So next question is, how do I use this information in order to detewrmine what kind of SITE ENCODING to configure Google search for the chosen web pages?
