Standard encoding from the server is UTF-8 though. Are you forcing the
charset on the server as well?
I generally have this at the top of my application.cfm:
<cfscript>
SetEncoding('form', 'iso-8859-1');
SetEncoding('url', 'iso-8859-1');
</cfscript>
<cfprocessingdirective pageencoding="iso-8859-1">
<cfcontent type="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1">
