Apache - Cyrilc (ISO) not recognized by browser

Hi All,

I have problem with my Apache 2.0 on RH 8.0. When I connect to the site
which is encoded in ISO-8859-5 and charset is explicitly given id header in
html page file, the browser (IE 6.0) does not recognize the charset and does
not automaticaly switch encoding view options. If I manualy change encoding
options in the browser I am able to see the site correctly (russian
letters).

My options in httpd.conf:

AddLanguage ru .ru
LanguagePriority pl en fr de ru
#ForceLanguagePriority Prefer Fallback
AddDefaultCharset ISO-8859-2
AddCharset ISO-8859-5 .iso8859-5 .latin5 .cyr .iso-ru
# For russian, more than one charset is used (depends on client, mostly):
AddCharset WINDOWS-1251 .cp-1251 .win-1251
AddCharset CP866 .cp866
AddCharset KOI8-r .koi8-r .koi8-ru
AddCharset KOI8-ru .koi8-uk .ua
AddCharset ISO-10646-UCS-2 .ucs2
AddCharset ISO-10646-UCS-4 .ucs4
AddCharset UTF-8 .utf8

What should be added or changed to let the browser switch to Cirilic (ISO)?

Thanks in advice

Which charset do you get in "content type" of http header?

Unless you don't want to always add one of endings like
"...foo.html.iso8859-5", you'd better remove "AddDefaultCharset" or
comment it out.
