You will have to take a network trace to determine if the missing characters
were either:
1. Never sent by the browser
2. Lost in translation by the web server
The best way to send character data between the web browser/server is to
send them UTF8 encoding, %-encoded. This will pass-thru just about
everywhere and you can decode the characters whenever you want. It is not
clear whether the web browser chose to UTF8-encode the POST data or not.
As soon as you start using a locale-specific encoding, you are going to run
into encoding problems, especially if the locale of the web server does not
match the web browser -- and this behavior is pretty much by-design. You
always want to transport and display data in a non-ambigous fashion, and if
you *need* to convert, convert at the presentation layer at the very end.
Store everything as Unicode and transport everything as %-encoded UTF8, and
you will safe from the I18N issues.
