no, meta-tags can't change much since the content-type is already sent with the http-header (which, in normal case, you create all by yourself when writing perl-cgis). And a meta-tag in that form doesn't exist anyway. The correct version is (e.g.):
<meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1" />
(xhtml compatible..)

If using tables you should be extremly carefull. NS has some really weird behavior, e.g. when you give a columns width in percent you can't center it anymore, etc.. (there some ways to work around, but i had that problem several times..) Try using CGI.pm or close ALL tags.. It doens't matter if you have too many closing tags, but it matters if you don't have enough..
