Right click on the web page, and click the popup menu item "View page source", you can find some text opened in the new window, then at the html begining party, the line such as "<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1" />" will tell the character set, 8859-1 is for various languages such as English, French, German, Spanish and a host of others. That is why it's called Western European. It also includes regions like Australia, much of Africa and all of the Americas.
