 Since you are using PHP you have control over what headers are sent, so you
can send the real header instead of an unreliable <meta> tag.

 header('Content-type: text/html;charset=windows-1250');

 Even if this doesn't help it at least eliminates one of the likely
possibilities, that the browser is using the wrong encoding.
