I'm browsing a web page: http://www-archive.mozilla.org/projects/intl/UniversalCharsetDetection.html. Some characters are displayed incorrectly. I noticed that the browser's encoding is UTF-8, however, this web page has set the charset as 'windows-1252'. I'm confused with this case, the web page explicitly sets the charset as 'windows-1252', but the browser still use 'UTF-8'.

That is because the server sends it with content-type= text/html; charset=UTF-8 and that prevails.

Firefox only uses the content type as specified in the meta tag if the server doesn't send a content-type via the response headers.
