My homepage use this :

"meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1"

but I don't know how to save the website dokument after editing.

I "Modify"  - "Page properties" - "Title/Encoding" - I use this setting, because I can se "ISO-8859-1"

You do not want unicode signature BOM.  That's something different from character encoding.

UTF-8 is the preferred character encoding for multiple languages in HTML5 documents.  But if you insist on using ISO encoding, you must change it in your new document preferences.  See screenshot. But I would not do it because it could result in strange characters or odd symbols appearing in your text.
