Content type in documents with no XML declaration

Frequently, I don't put the XML declaration at the beginning of XHTML
documents.
According to appendix C1 of the XHTML 1.0 Strict spec, I may only use
the two UTF character sets, 8 & 16, if I omit the XML declaration.

Does this mean that a document that declares a different content type,
using a meta tag (as below) is not valid?

<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1" />



Cheers,

Pid
