Yes. Replace all characters in your file which are not contained in
ISO-8859-15 with something else. This "something else" must be, of
course, representable in ISO-8859-15. Since you seem to edit a
HTML-file, character- or entity references come to mind.
That said, you might want to consider saving the file with an encoding
that is less limiting wrt the characters that can be used - for example
UTF-8. This may turn out to be a much better idea in the long run.
