Even with the entities, character set issues pop up because browsers ,
and users, can be stupid.
i've had character entities show up wrong on browsers because of one
stupid setting or another. I think the last Safari upgrade to osx
messed them up.
I'd suggest doing a
AddDefaultCharset UTF8
or whatever charset needed to the appropriate host section of your
httpd.conf file

Um, guys, whatever happened to character entities for non-US ASCII
characters (eg é for e-accent-aigu)? Seems to me it would be
easy to write a filter to replace outgoing characters with their
character entity equivalents, thereby avoiding character set issues.
