Ok. I've added line AddDefaultCharset WINDOWS-1251 to httpd.conf but the same result - the charset is still iso8859. Whats wrong  |

Did you set a <meta.... tag with a different charset? Did you set a <meta... tag ? If not some browsers set a charset by default which is mostly wrong 
<meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html; charset=WINDOWS-1251"> |

If it works with it the answer is yes!
i.e.
| Code: |
<html><head><title>my Title for this page</title>
<meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html; charset=WINDOWS-1251">
</head>
<body>
...
</body></html>
|
Does the browser show the pages correcly with the meta set charset? |
