Unicode/Western character encoding

Still no idea why it do the above, but now I have at least found a solution.

All the relevant texts from the database are send through the method below and then everything looks fine.

function ConvertDanishCharacters($string)
{
	 $string = str_replace("?", "&#230", $string);
	 $string = str_replace("?", "&#198", $string);
	 $string = str_replace("?", "&#248", $string);
	 $string = str_replace("?", "&#216", $string);
	 $string = str_replace("?", "&#229", $string);
	 $string = str_replace("?", "&#197", $string); 

	return $string;
}
