Umlauts work great in HTML in you use encoding UTF-8 Don't forget
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html;charset=UTF-8"/> in your markup to make the IDE respect it. an additional <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> at the beginning of the markup will not hurt. Eventually set the encoding of your project files in your IDE to be UTF-8, too. Set wickets default request / response encoding to UTF-8. Properties files can either be XML or raw text files. For example IDEA supports converting umlauts into escape sequences compatible with ISO-8859-1 which is the default encoding for .properties. So I can use .properties files there and type umlauts without caring. No need to use entities for umlauts like ä &ssharp; and such. If you take care of all these little things it just works.
