php character set not working

PHP

Hi,

I am having problems with the character set of my php website.

I have the following code in my php file:

<meta http-equiv=Content-Type content="text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1">

and i have the following in my .htaccess file

AddType 'text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1' html

But when I test my website with firebug, it says that I need to specify a character set. am I using the wrong character set or am I doing something else wrong?

if you have firebug and want to test my website yourself, the url of my website is:

http://www.dewsburysgc.co.uk

Thanks in advance to everyone who helps me
