Latin-8 = iso-8859-14
Put the following in ~/.emacs:
(setq default-buffer-file-coding-system 'iso-8859-14-dos))
;; if you want iso-8859-14 for all documents.
(modify-coding-system-alist 'file "\\.html\\'" 'iso-8859-14-dos)
;; if you want it only for .html files.

Normally, the web server doesn't mind the encoding. Did you put a:
<META HTTP-EQUIV="Content-Type" CONTENT="text/html; charset=utf-8">
tag in your <HEAD> section?
If you convert them to iso-8859-14, mind changing the meta tag as:
<META HTTP-EQUIV="Content-Type" CONTENT="text/html; charset=iso-8859-14">

Don't know.
