Suddenly, it all makes sense...

I've been struggling with the problem of encoding and HTML forms for quite some time now. I should have read this post on Sam Ruby's site, who also wrote the i18n survival guide. It's really simple once you set the encoding to UTF-8. No more guesswork based on heuristics ("it's probably German, so they'll use umlauts and I guess that they use either utf-8 or ISO..."). The key sentence:
Joe Gregorio: lacking any other indications, a browser will submit the data from a form using the same character encoding that the page is served in.
