  18:  *  The <code>CSSCharsetRule</code> interface represents a @charset rule in a 
  19:  * CSS style sheet. The value of the <code>encoding</code> attribute does 
  20:  * not affect the encoding of text data in the DOM objects; this encoding is 
  21:  * always UTF-16. After a stylesheet is loaded, the value of the 
  22:  * <code>encoding</code> attribute is the value found in the 
  23:  * <code>@charset</code> rule. If there was no <code>@charset</code> in the 
  24:  * original document, then no <code>CSSCharsetRule</code> is created. The 
  25:  * value of the <code>encoding</code> attribute may also be used as a hint 
  26:  * for the encoding used on serialization of the style sheet. 
  27:  * <p> The value of the @charset rule (and therefore of the 
  28:  * <code>CSSCharsetRule</code>) may not correspond to the encoding the 
  29:  * document actually came in; character encoding information e.g. in an HTTP 
  30:  * header, has priority (see CSS document representation) but this is not 
  31:  * reflected in the <code>CSSCharsetRule</code>.
