James,

As Christophe already said, you should think about switching to Unicode 
now, because Ajax libraries usually demand UTF-8. I had similar problems 
with my Slovenian language and ISO-8859-2 and because of no luck with 
supporting it in Ajax, I decided to switch. This switch is once forever, 
that's also a reason to consider!
