Heiya,<br /><b>thank you</b> again for your input.

As it turns out the browsers (Fx, Ch, O, Wb, etc. are decoding %C3 to
%c3 instead of just sending %C3.

Some people reported that setting "AddDefaultCharset UTF-8" in Apache
and "default_charset = "UTF-8" in PHP should do and did the trick but
this particular environment is still resting.

Any other ideas on how to mitigate this somehow?

<i>Cheers</i><br />Karsten
