UTF-8 could also get you there but many tools get the encoding wrong. The entity method has been more reliable for me and works with any plain old text editor.

I would trust Chris on this, he does has more experience than I do... However, 
I would have expected that if the HTML  had indicated that the content-encoding 
was UTF-8 which I believe all Macintoshes use, then I would have expected the 
accented characters to be displayed correctly on the web page.

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
