UTF characters when using Web Form

[carajillo]

I am currently evaluating SugarCRM and have for that purpose created a couple of web forms for capturing leads from my web site - and they work fine, except for one thing, all my local characters (danish ÆØÅ) is being dropped when the data is saved back into sugarCRM.

I have understood that I need to set the charset to UTF-8 and it works fine when I do a simple import into the leads table, but even when I use a "accept-charset="utf-8" in my form I get rubbish.

Does anybody have a point to where I am going wrong?

¨Hi, did you ever figure this out?
I have trouble with æøå (norwegian) and I am using Joomla portal. When one of these letters are written, everything after this is dropped.

It would be great if you could help me out.

Hi Experts,

I am facing a problem with special characters £ € £ ä ¥ etc (Currencies)

sugarcrm has been set to UTF-8
sugar is not accepting these characters.

Please help.

Thanks
