MS Front Page is forcing UTF-8 character set, but browser won't react
This gentleman wrote a makeshift page in Front Page. He is trying to install the Google Analytics tracking code, and apparently Front Page is forcing a bunch of <div> tags before every line, making the code show up as text on the page. I've tried to help out by just pasting the raw code via FTP. I used Taco HTML Edit, pasted it in, and if I save in plain text, in the finished product I see a bunch of  characters in place of apostrophes and quotes.
So I did some research and Taco tells me that the page contains characters belonging to the UFT-8 character set, and thus I must save in that format. Apparently I can make the browser aware by dropping this line of text in the <head>:
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html;charset=UTF-8">
But that didn't do the trick.
Does anyone know how I can steer around Front Page's default character set, so I can make FTP-side edits in plain text when needed?
