I've figured it out - you have to stick in a meta tag to force the
browser to use UTF-8. Something like.
<html>
<head>
<meta charset="UTF-8"></meta>
</head>
<body>
Some stuff...
</body>
</html>
Note that I simply cannot get it to work with ISO8859_1 encoding.

Hi All.
I've bumped into an incompatibility between WebObjects 5.3 and 5.4.
In 5.3, I could submit a form value with non-ASCII characters, and
their encoding would be correctly interpreted. In 5.4, the encoding
is misinterpreted.
I printed out the actual request contents, and, for instance e-acute
is sent as é, which as far as I know is correct ISO8859 encoding.
I read in the release notes that WO 5.4 now defaults to UTF8
encoding, so I tried to change the request's
defaultFormValueEncoding to ISO8859_1. Then it got interpreted as a
literal é!
Can anybody shed some light on this? I have searched the lists and
the Google, and have come up empty.
Thanks!
