Re: Problem with french accents using mod perl

[David Scott]

Um, guys, whatever happened to character entities for non-US ASCII 
characters (eg é for e-accent-aigu)?  Seems to me it would be 
easy to write a filter to replace outgoing characters with their 
character entity equivalents, thereby avoiding character set issues.

Have you verified that the headers and meta data match the character 
set of the document?
