Lest I am painted as unhelpful(*), http://www.vex.net/~trebla/u.html exemplifies what can be done and how to do it. In particular, you must always specify a content encoding in the HTML header, and you must always order your editor to write out UTF-8.
When I tell the editor to save UTF-8, it inserts some weird "BOM" character at the start of the file - and thus, any attempt at programatically processing that file instantly fails. :-(
