Textarea should work fine, but at least on the display side. The problem is 
basicly you send data to the client with some encoding, and the client send 
it back in another encoding. Unfortunely Mozilla and IE do it different. So 
you need some action to parse the input.

I investigate the textarea thing. Often it is a lost UTF8 flag.

I do not understand all this, but what is broken, if you look at the page in 
UTF8? Then all three languages should be ok. Otherwise the encoding is broken 
somewhere. And there should be no need to force the browser to use utf8 
encoding, the browser should chooce the right encoding if you allow it 
( autoencoding ).
