Are you sure that this is what it did? Perhaps the pages with iso-8859-8 
are old ones that weren't generated by xsltproc (or something like 
that...?)  At any case, iso-8859-8-i is PREFERRED as the meta charset, but 
windows-1255 is also OK, because most popular browsers (mozilla, opera, 
IE) understands that name...

Also, if I am not wrong, putting <html dir="rtl"> enforces charset 
iso-8859-8-i (because RTL makes the browser render the page from right to 
left, and this is actually, what iso-8859-8-i *means*). So perhaps putting 
that HTML tag should be sufficient.
