HTML Guide

Bad value “text/html; charset=windows-1252” for attribute “content” on element “meta”: “charset=” must be followed by “utf-8”.

A <meta> tag has been found in the document stating that the charset is windows-1252, but it actually is utf-8. You should update the tag to reflect the actual encoding of the document, for example:

<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8">
