I understand that it is not the uft-8 wich give the ability to render the

which tell the agent to render the accent using the UFT-8
also don't forget that meta alone is not enough. You need to have your web
server sending out the correct encoding with its headers as well
(if you're using Apache and have .htaccess override support, have a look at
http://www.w3.org/International/questions/qa-htaccess-charset for instance)
Then Why the validator gives an error for each accent when I use UFT-8?
It say that UFT-8 doesn't recognize this kind of character (french character)
Try it with the correct server headers and the validator should be happy.
