I apologize for the vagueness. I was referring to the browser/php header or a 
meta tag. 

Something to the effect of this quick copy paste from a site that uses accent 
marks and umlauts: 

<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1">
 
 If I am understanding correctly, you are referring to a HTML specific issue 
where the HTML and browser configuration is displaying your characters 
improperly?
