Hi,

Which method should I include the following information? Or which method should I use for which information?

[code=php]header(“Content-Type: application/xhtml+xml; charset=UTF-8”);
header(“Content-Style-Type: text/css; charset=UTF-8”);
header(“Content-Script-Type: text/javascript; charset=UTF-8”);
header(“Content-Language: en”);
[/code]

[code=html]
<meta http-equiv=”Content-Type” content=”application/xhtml+xml; charset=UTF-8″ />
<meta http-equiv=”Content-Style-Type” content=”text/css; charset=UTF-8″ />
<meta http-equiv=”Content-Script-Type” content=”text/javascript; charset=UTF-8″ />
<meta http-equiv=”Content-Language” content=”en” />[/code]

@felgallAug 11.2006 — Use headers whereever possible as they get processed by the browser before starting to load the page. Using meta tags means that the browser has to make assumptions about the content until it reads enough of the page to see the answer by which time it may be too late to apply it.

Do you know about any way to check which headers a specific Webpage sends out?
