Yes. The cfhttp-charset should be CP1252. I would check the following just to make sure:
1. You also should make sure your page is rendering UTF-8. You can do this by adding the following: <cfcontent type="text/xml; charset=UTF-8"> CFMX serves pages by default as UTF-8. However previous versions must be told how to render the page. AND 2. Make sure your editor is saving the files as default encoding of Unicode (UTF-8). If you're using dreamweaver (studio is incapable of this functionality), this can be found in edit > preferences > new document. Warmest Regards, Phillip B.
