I have a <form> with several text inputs and a textarea. The documents Content-Type header is text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1 and in the <head>-part I have a meta-tag with the same content-type: <meta http-equiv="Content-type" content="text/html;charset=iso-8859-1" />. But when I type some special characters in one of the fields (like äüüß) the whole field is not sent, according to Firebug. What's the reason for that?

+1  A: 

was this included

<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" />

EDIT: try using utf-8 in stead
