I've had a lot of experience with this.

You have to make sure the data coming into your
program is utf8.

Imagine trying to do a regex on your french chars. It
won't happen. That's why you have to have utf8 enable.

use utf8;

Have a look at perllocale. There's lots of info there.

The intermittent problems, try F5 (refresh) on the
broswer.

Also, if you are using a DB, do some tests. I use
MySQL and by default, it stores data as iso-8859 and
when I converted that data to utf8, the output was
worse. So, I just read the data direct from MySQL.

I've since upgraded to MySQL 4 and haven't had any
probs (touch wood). I haven't looked further into
though.

Also, if data is coming from files, look at using utf8
in the open command.

I hope this helps.
