There's no harm setting the entire page (or website) to UTF-8, unless you have a pressing reason not to.
Just change it to charset=UTF-8.

Thank you peter,

i know there is no harm but i have link indexing search script and i want to give the vistors of my site only the search input in order to put it in there sites to search through my site but if they change the utf-8 they will have to change the entire text on the page to go with the new unicode, specially arabic users.

and this is impossible and weary.

Yes, of course, but *provided* the page (or website) is in fact encoded in UTF-8.

Theres' no way in HTML I can think of that'd achieve this. You'd have to investigate some of the scripting methods that'd allow you to do this.
