Character Encoding Mismatch
Can somone put me right here. When you validate the index page of my upcoming new site, simplycfhost.com/om it validates like this .
XCan someone point out to me where the Character Mismatch malarkey is coming from?

Yeh it is 100% valid but just unbder the tick boxes for Revalidate with options it says:
Character Encoding mismatch!The character encoding specified in the HTTP header (utf-8) is different from the value in the element (iso-8859-1). I will use the value from the HTTP header (utf-8) for this validation.
Now it might be me being picky
but I don't want ANY errors even if it validates so I'd like to get rid of this one too...

It shouldn't be a problem since the should override what the server sends. I think. (Might be the other way round, have to check on that.)
Something on your server side is sending a header saying the character encoding is UTF-8. This could be a server default (look in your configuration), or could be some part of your server-side script doing it, or it could be that you're not setting it in the script so the server forces a default.
I personally use UTF-8 anyway, so would change the to suit.
