trying to get a page to validate to AAA

Hey all,

I am having a bit of trouble making sense of something. I have a page
which validates to AAA when I use the version of "total validator" that
I downloaded and installed locally, but it doesn't validate when I use
the same application online.

here is the page:
http://sandyfeldman.com/test.html

here is the validator:
http://www.totalvalidator.com/validator/Validator

The problem line seems to be
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="application/xhtml+xml;
charset=utf-8" />

is that a valid line of code?

If not, what's the right syntax? the validator directs me to
http://www.w3.org/TR/2009/NOTE-xhtml-media-types-20090116/
which I've read, and don't feel any further ahead!

thanks very much to anyone who can help clear this up.

Sandy
