Your server is probably sending a real HTTP header that looks just like the
<meta/> imitated one except the dash is an underscore, which is perfectly
legal. The validator doesn't yet support all equivalent represantations of
charsets, including yours. You could ask your admin to change the server
settings to send "ISO-8859-1" instead for which the support is a little
broader.
