international characters in Javascript

Question

I am working on a web application, where I transfer data from the server to the browser in XML.

Since I\'m danish, I quickly run into problems with the characters

Answer 1

I get "æøå" for the first one and some junk characters for the next. Could it be that the javascript is not mangling (or mojibake) your letters but the alert dialog uses the system default font, and the font is incapable of displaying the letters?
