You should only use ascii text in your HTML. If you need special
characters then you need to use entity identifiers as anything will have
cross-browser/platform weirdness, if you get them to work at all.
Entities are written as &something; where something is replaced by some
string of characters. Common entities can be found here:

I run into this all the time with Windows people typing in special
characters instead of using entities and then wondering why it comes out
all goofy on Safari and anything non-IE.

Hi all,
I am happy to say that I was able to use terminal to upload files to ftp so
thanks for the tips.
I am running into a different problem however. I am trying to upload a htm file
containing accented letters. I saved in textedit. The characters are displaying
well in textedit but not on the web. I have tempo rarely removed them but would
love to find a solution for this. HOw do I even begin to address this issue of
encoding incompatibility?
Thanks for your help.
Ioana
