How exactly are you putting them into your web page? Normally
non-ASCII characters, which includes all the accented characters, need
to be coded as &xxx; where xxx is a number, for example &130; is é (e
acute) or é (that may not be exact, I'm guessing it from
memory) can also be used. So if you prepared your HTML in a text
editor you may well have this problem. But if you use a WYSIWYG
program like Mozilla it is done automatically.
