[Javascript] Re: French accents in window.status

[Peter Brunone]

	What happens when you just use é?  You say you "can't get them
to be right"; what does the status bar display?

Yes, I tried using the entities. It appears that the text in 
window.status show the actual code and not the accents! Like this:

:: :: :: :: Bonjour du Québec !
:: :: :: :: Bonjour du Québec !

instead of this :

:: :: :: :: Bonjour du Québec !

Does anybody knows what's wrong ? It is that way in Mozilla as in 
Internet Explorer. You can see the whole code at 
www.sourcelibre.com/dev/ce/js.msgdefil.php

Thanx!
