keywords in Japanese in meta-tags possible?

Hello all,

I've just finished a small bilingual web site in Japanese/English. 
All is done and up and running and my client is all happy.

The Japanese section is in "CHARSET=Shift_JIS" and the English 
section in the usual "charset=iso-8859-1". Everything displays just 
fine.


However: I wanted to add keywords in the meta-tags. English is no 
problem, but for the Japanese I just get "gibberish". Does anyone 
have an idea on how I can make the keywords display in Japanese? Or 
maybe somebody has some experience with other languages with 
different encoding (Chinese, Cyrillic, etc.)

I did some "homework" and went through more than a handful of 
japanese web sites. None of them uses meta-tags for keywords, or 
descriptions for that matter.

Or, maybe, somebody can point me to a place where I can find more 
information on how to place keywords in Japanese into metatags.


Thanks a lot and arigatou,

Doris
