If you send out HTML with the header:
Content-Type: text/html; charset=utf-8
Then the edit-boxes will send back utf-8, or at least they should
according the the HTML spec (works on NS 4.5+ and IE5 from my testing).
Alternatively you can set the content-type on the form tag
(encoding="..." tag - see the HTML spec again).
