when I see the accented A character it tells me that someone is sending unicode but expecting 8859-1! As I converted everything to unicode, I've never had this problem.
Is the html page being served as utf-8? Do you have a publically accessible version of the page? I'd look at the headers and the jQuery code. Having to clean it up yourself is a major pain! Just when you think you've got it somebody type ø! or Ø!
