People will use whatever works best for them. For me, it's latin-1 or ISO 8859-15. It is not a legacy encoding; it is completely sound if all you want is to write European characters. I'm fairly sure I will never mix any Chinese text in my web pages, and with ISO 8859-15 they seem to work best across editors and browsers.
This web page is written in ISO 8859-1; or so it says in the header:
CONTENT="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1"so the character might not work. In fact it does work in Firefox, maybe because UTF-8 is really the charset used?
