Salut Yannick and others,

If you look at Ajax example 4 on 
http://demo.aidaweb.si/demos.html?view=ajax, you'll see an autocomplete 
field for selection of month names in 5 languages, 3 of them have names 
  with accented letters. Just type s and you'll see names like sušec etc.

This is a proof that an autocomplete field can work well with accented 
letters if you use strictly UTF-8, as in Aida/Web framework from where 
above example is.

Best regards
JAnko
