The declaration in the HTTP header will always override the in-document declaration, if there is a conflict, except for those browsers where the byte-order mark overrides it.

You can change the situation either for the server as a whole, or for a specific file or set of files, by changing the server settings (globally or locally) or by using code in scripts such as PHP. It could be that the server is serving a style sheet with an encoding declaration that you don't want, due to server-wide defaults or specific settings, or serving without an encoding declaration when you want one.

For more information about how to set the encoding in HTTP see Setting the HTTP charset parameter. The techniques index provides a set of links to help you detect whether a declaration is being sent in the HTTP header. This line in the HTTP response would indicate that the file is encoded in UTF-8. The server may already send a default character encoding declaration in the HTTP Content-Type header when your browser retrieves a style sheet, or it may not. The former has the additional advantage that it helps people looking at the source code to ascertain what is the encoding of the style sheet. So for the time being you should rely on the or HTTP header declarations instead. Unfortunately, at the time of writing this is not supported interoperably – Internet Explorer 10 and 11 still give higher precedence to the HTTP header and declarations. The CSS3 Syntax specification says that if you have a UTF-8 byte-order mark at the start of your file, this should cause the browser to read the style sheet as UTF-8, regardless of any other declaration. If it is, must be set to declare the same encoding, and will only have an effect when the style sheet is read in a context where there are no HTTP headers (eg. Important: Since the HTTP header has a higher precedence than the in-document declaration, you should always take into account whether the character encoding is already declared in the HTTP header. (See Applying an encoding to your content.)

Note! It is not enough to simply put "utf-8" at the top of the style sheet – you need to also save your style sheet in the UTF-8 character encoding. Preceded by any characters, not even comments. Only one byte sequence may appear in an external style sheet and it must appear at the very start of the document. If you really cannot use UTF-8 for your style sheet, see Working with non-UTF-8 encodings, below. The charset-name is case-insensitive, but should always be utf-8 for new style sheets. To set the character encoding inside the style sheet, use the following sequence of bytes, apart from the charset-name, at the very start of the file, one byte per character. Variations, even those that would be valid for a normal at-rule with the same syntax, are silently ignored. Only an exact byte sequence, beginning with the very first byte in the style sheet, will be effective. It is important to understand that, although the declaration looks like a CSS at-rule, it is not parsed as such for detection of the character encoding.

(If your HTML and CSS files use the same encoding, the latest versions of major browsers will apply the encoding of the HTML file to the CSS stylesheet.) Details Using mentioned above, you should only use this when the style sheet and the calling HTML file are in different encodings. In this case you should use or HTTP headers to declare the encoding. Other approaches are only needed if your style sheet contains non-ASCII characters and, for some reason, you can't rely on the encoding of the HTML and the associated style sheet to be the same. If you do that, there is no need to declare the encoding of your style sheet. You should always use UTF-8 as the character encoding of your style sheets and your HTML pages, and declare that encoding in your HTML. If you have any non-ASCII text in your CSS file, for example non-ASCII characters in font names, in values of the content property, in selectors, etc., you need to be sure that the CSS parser knows how to transform the bytes into characters correctly, so that it understands your CSS code. How do I declare the character encoding of a CSS style sheet?
