The best thing is to configure your server to send the correct content
type/charset.

If you're lucky enough to be hosted on Apache, you can use the
.htaccess files.  There's an AddCharset directive and you can use
<Files> sections if the charsets differ (I personally would recommend to
send everything as UTF-8 and recode the files (e.g. by iconv) as necessary).
