Hi, im new to GWT and im having problems in displaying non-english
characters. For example, im creating this menu bar and one of its
items' name has the spanish accent symbol over the "o" letter:

menu.addItem("Presentación", menuPresentacion);

The "ó" is displayed like a weird question mark inside a box when i
compile the project and load the html into firefox.

So what i do next is adding a "meta" statement into the html file that
is being load into the project.

<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8" >

This doesnt work either, get the same result. So next I try to convert
inside the java code every string into UTF-8 charset using URL
methods:

menu.addItem(URL.encode("Presentación"), menuPresentacion);

And now firefox shows it like this:

Presentaci%EF%BF%BDn

I also tried writting the strings inside the java code using HTML
notation for special characters:

menu.addItem("Presentaci&oacute;n", menuPresentacion);

Doesnt work either.What is wrong whith this?

Thanks in advance.
