Special Character Bug...

Hi,
I have a problem with the shoutbox I am making: when I type an é, ç, è, ',... (in short, a special character), it replaces the character with something like: é

So my question is how to avoid this, is there a solution? (I'm working with a text file..)

Thanks in advance!

Configuration: Windows 7 / Google Chrome

Uh, question, which page should I put it on?
The one with the form?
The one where it saves the message?
The one where it displays the message?

Is there another solution? (P.S: It saves it incorrectly in the txt)
