title: Charset omitted from content-type header
body: <p>In my <code>&lt;head&gt;</code>, I have:</p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" /&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Because I'm seeing a couple of funky characters, I took a closer look at the <code>Content-Type</code> response header in Firebug (and Safari's inspector) and both read <code>Content-Type:text/html</code>. No indication that the charset is recognized. I'm using an HTML5 doctype and have also tried <code>&lt;meta charset="utf-8" /&gt;</code>. Neither has worked or changed the value I see in the inspectors.</p>
  
  <p>I'm assuming that both developer tools would report the accurate <code>Content-Type</code> including the charset, but I guess I've never had a reason to look all that closely. Is there anything else I should do to ensure that the page is rendered with the UTF8 character set?</p>
  
  <p>I'm not sure this is my problem, but it seemed odd so I thought I'd ask. Maybe my expectations are incorrect.</p>
  
  <p>Thanks.</p>
