You can't really set it. You can tell the browser what it is through the 
Content-Type header, e.g. "Content-Type: text/html; charset=utf-8 (that 
is an HTTP header and not in the HTML code).
For standalone viewing (i.e. if the user saved the HTML to disk and 
opens it from there, so no server is providing any header) there is the 
<meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8"> tag 
in the header.
Now how you set http headers or output html is completly depending on 
your framework. Consult your documentation.
