Using defaultcharset and defaultlanguage to eliminate meta

Using defaultcharset and defaultlanguage to eliminate meta

Instead of using meta lines to give your pages a charset like utf-8 or iso-9660, use this:

Code: Select all: AddDefaultCharset utf-8

Instead of using meta to specify the language, use this:

Code: Select all: DefaultLanguage en-us

To make sure the headers only get sent with html and php files, (instead of sending a charset and language with every file served) do this:

Code: Select all: <FilesMatch "\.(html|htm|php)$"> AddDefaultCharset utf-8 DefaultLanguage en-us </FilesMatch>
