Closing this issue based on Jean-Francois comment. If this does not work in a supported version of Sakai (currently Sakai 2.8.x and Sakai 2.9.x) please feel free to open a new ticket.

This seems to be fixed at least since 2.6.0. Could you check again on QA servers, Andrew?

Is this still an active issue as of 2.4.0? If so, please update the Affects Version to include the latest 2.4 tag (e.g., 2.4.0.010). If not, please Close it with a resolution of Incomplete. Thanks.
Documents containing unicode characters are incorrectly displayed by Internet Explorer 6 and Firefox. Unicode characters appear as question marks.
Strangely, if you View Source and save the source to a local file then open that local file using the same browser, the unicode characters display correctly. It seems that neither Sakai nor the browser are munging the unicode characters, but when the browser sources the file from Sakai it displays them differently than when it sources them from an identical local file.
The Content-Type header sent by Sakai appears to specify "charset=UTF-8". Is this not enough to convince the browser to render unicode characters?

This problem happens in a 2.2 maintenance branch based production environment as well as in the current nightly build.
