Latin1 - ISO-8859-1.

A character set defines the way a sequence of bytes is converted into a sequence of characters. This particular character set is known as Latin-1, or ISO-8859-1. Of the 256 characters in Latin-1, 128 are the characters in the ASCII, the characters that typically appear on a standard U.S. English keyboard (and accompanying nonprinting special characters such as ASCII BEL). The remaining 128 consist of special and accented characters that are used regularly in the Western European languages.

To specify these characters in an HTML document (or on StackExchange), you can enter the character entity (if one is defined) or the numeric entity. For example, to cause Æ to appear in a document, you could enter either Æ or &#198. Note that the case of character entities is significant. Specifying æ causes æ to be displayed.

Why does a CP-1252 ellipsis show up as u with ring above (ů) on some browsers

For some reason, on some browsers, a CP-1252 ellipsis (0x85) is showing up as ů. I believe the server is claiming the page will be in UTF-8 (don't ask me why a UTF-8 server is serving CP-1252, that is out of scope). I would understand throwing a…
