Then you would make a wrong suggestion. The question alone indicates that
the OP is not ready for using UTF-8 yet.

"Should"? Of course he can enter any Unicode character as soon as he has
found a suitable Unicode-enabled editor for use with HTML, a way to make the
HTTP server send adequate headers, and a basic understanding of what Unicode
is. But that doesn't mean he should use UTF-8 just to enter a casual
apostrophe.

Very few HTML authors use multiple scripts on the same page, and even fewer
should.
