<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset={$charset}">

This line in my code is making eclipse give me errors about the encoding being invalid... however, that encoding is very valid given the fact $charset sometimes equates to UTF-8 or win1252.

Is there any way to force eclipse to save the file and not do validations for me on save? PDT is a very retarded editor, how do i disable its thinking and make it act?

I already have disabled all the actual validators in the preferences and it is still trying to tell me i have errors and I couldn't find any "Force save" or "Allow save on error" options.

Do you mean
>Save could not be completed
>
>Reason:
>Character encoding "{$charset}" is not a legal character encoding.
from HTML Editor ?
It is just what there says it.
WTP(not PDT) doesn't allow such illegal charset name. (It is a critical bug of WTP...)

You can save it by rewriting it as
<meta content="text/html; charset={$charset}" http-equiv="Content-Type">
(note that it is a trick...)

Or...
Set correct encoding to "Text file encoding - Other" in Properties of the file first.

Maybe...
You can use PHP Editor for editing html files, it doesn't have this charset problem.
Preferences > General > Content Types > PHP Content Types > Add *.html

Is this a standard HTML file or is this a PHP file containing some html elements?

Can you paste example code and an example filename so it's possible to reproduce?

Thanks Toshihiro, inverting the text line does work (putting http-equiv at the end) like so:
<meta content="text/html; charset={$charset}" http-equiv="Content-Type">


Its a template file created using Smarty. So its a .tpl
Its purpose is to allow better code division and the possibility for the pages to have multiple layouts without touching the php code itself.
It also makes multi language much easier to manage.

<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/loose.dtd">
<html>
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset={$charset}">
<title>{$lang.sitetitle}</title>

</head>
<body>
Hello World!
</body>
</html>
