No, that's what kind of content the server is willing to accept from
various sources such as POST.  You want the following somewhere near the
beginning of your script:

<?php

    header( 'Content-type: text/html; charset=iso-8859-1' );

?>

Cheers,
Rob.

Thanks again, but as far as I have read, it seems that UTF-8 has better
handling for French characters?

We have the following in our HTML page: 

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


Would the header not conflict with this meta tag?
