A: 

If you don't have control over the charset or are in doubt, using &#xe9; should also work. But yes, ideally you should use Unicode in your documents if you need to support multiple languages.

A: 

UTF-8 (8-bit UCS), ISO 8859-1 (8-bit) (aka ISO Latin 1), ISO 10646 (16-bit UCS) [according to this site] allow to use &#233 for the é.
