If you need to insert special characters, do not use your normal keyboard characters; they will appear in gibberish for users who don't have the same language installed.

Here are the codes you should use instead of the letter you want to put:

Keep in mind that you must remove the extra space between the &, the words and the ;

É = & Eacute ;

é = & eacute ;

Á = & Aacute ;

á = & aacute ;

same system for other characters: I i O o U u Y y

Example: "Touré" = "Tour& eacute ;"

È = & Egrave ;

è = & egrave ;

À = & Agrave ;

à = & agrave ;

same system for other characters: I i O o U u

 = & Acirc ;

same system for other characters: a E e I i O o U u

à = & Atilde ;

same system for other characters: a O o N n

Ç = & Ccedil ;

ç = & ccedil ;

Å = & Aring ;

å = & aring ;

Æ = & AElig ;

æ = & aelig ;

Ü = & Uuml ;

ü = & uuml ;

same system for a, A, o, O, e E i I

example for ë = & euml ;

A few other characters:

€ = & euro ;

¢ = & cent ;

£ = & pound ;

§ = & sect ;

© = & copy ;

Ø = & Oslash ;

® = & reg ;

• = & #8226 ;

Here is a list of all these characters and more: http://de.selfhtml.org/html/referenz/zeichen.htm

Note: I couldn't find the codes for Slavic characters. If someone knows how to properly include them, please add info in this page.
