Problem with french accents using mod perl

[Sebastien Pinsonnault]

Hello,

I hope someone can help me as I cannot find any info on how to solve my issue.

I'll try to make this short and sweet....

I have a website which has french accents (i.e. é) and I noticed that when a page uses mod perl in a cgi, the french accents are all messed up in my browser.
But if I take the same script and redirect the output to a html file (ex: ./login.cgi &> ../test.html), the accents display fine...

The only workaround I have found for now is to hardcode those accents directly in the html page (ex: é).

Does anyone know another way to fix this?

We are running apache undere redhat enterprise linux.

Thanks in advance.
