"No Character encoding declared at document level

No character encoding information was found within the document, either in an
HTML meta element or an XML declaration. It is often recommended to declare
the character encoding in the document itself, especially if there is a chance
that the document will be read from or saved to disk, CD, etc.

See this tutorial on character encoding for techniques and explanations."
