I imagine that the choice depends on which languages are used on the same
website or at least on the same page.
You could not use iso-8859-1 for Chinese as far as I know...and if the page
contains a part in Chinese and a part in a European language what could I
use instead of UTF-8 and which were more effective as well?
On the other hand, if you only use West-european languages, I guess that
iso-8859-1 would do the job.
