You don't have to quote values of charset parameter (you MAY quote, though). If you want to quote the value, it should be something like: <META http-equiv="Content-Type" content='text/html; charset="ISO-8859-5"'> For more information about charset parameter, take a look at "3.4 Character Sets" of RFC 2616 and "4.1.2. Charset Parameter" of RFC 2046. And "5.1. Syntax of the Content-Type Header Field" of RFC 2045 explains the formal syntax of the Content-Type field, and it includes a note on quoted strings.
