I'm having a problem with a document I've added html to for someone else.

I've figured out that the problem is, Fedora 3 installed with charset 
UTF-8 as the default, but the website uses iso-8859-1.  Thus I save 
stuff using vi, but when displayed with the site's standard headers, 
some of my characters get replaced by different ones (mostly the 
double-quote character, but I think some other characters have problems 
too).

I tried to google it, but gee, *every* webpage has 'charset' in it.

I'm curious as to the underlying issue, but I'm on a deadline with this 
so my immediate question is how to fix it for this page.
