Webinator admin page changes Top Html?

I am trying to create a valid XHTML search results page. In the Top Html field, I've entered the following code.

<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8">

Well, XHTML requires that the meta tag be closed with />.

<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8" />

The Webinator admin page is stripping out the / character. If I change the charset to ISO-8859-1, it changes it back to UTF-8, so I know it is enforcing how that meta tag looks.

How do I close the tag with />

Thanks, John

Webinator 5 will change the charset in the Top HTML automagically to reflect Display Charset. To turn off this replacement, add your `/>' back in, and put several (2+) spaces between the `meta' and `http-equiv' tokens so that Webinator won't find it.
