Hi.
 
Our mapserver-eniromnent entirely works in utf-8 (mapfiles, webserver, 
postgres, ..) with one exception, that is, all of our shapefiles.
The shapfiles are created/updated in an Windows-environment by several, 
external contributors.
Hence they are encoded in Wiindows-ANSI (cp: 1252).
 
If i do an GetFeatureInfo-Request on the attibutes of the shapefiles all 
special characters ("umlauts") are garbled. 
This is no wonder since the content of the shapefile-attributes must be recoded 
to utf-8 prior to insertion in the template.html.  
 
How can this be acomplished? I could not find anything useful in the 
documentation or with google.
