/**
 *  The CSSCharsetRule interface represents a @charset rule in a 
 * CSS style sheet. The value of the encoding attribute does 
 * not affect the encoding of text data in the DOM objects; this encoding is 
 * always UTF-16. After a stylesheet is loaded, the value of the 
 * encoding attribute is the value found in the 
 * @charset rule. If there was no @charset in the 
 * original document, then no CSSCharsetRule is created. The 
 * value of the encoding attribute may also be used as a hint 
 * for the encoding used on serialization of the style sheet. 
 *  The value of the @charset rule (and therefore of the 
 * CSSCharsetRule) may not correspond to the encoding the 
 * document actually came in; character encoding information e.g. in an HTTP 
 * header, has priority (see CSS document representation) but this is not 
 * reflected in the CSSCharsetRule. 
 * See also the Document Object Model (DOM) Level 2 Style Specification.
 * @since DOM Level 2
