I am a French teacher and am trying to post vocabulary to my website. In the
"normal" view, I can create all of the accented characters I wish. When I
look at the page in the browser, all of the characters change to other
letters: for example, an accented E becomes and H. Why does this happen,
and how can I prevent its recurrence?
 
The only way to guarantee a special character like that is to use the
corresponding HTML entity. It's a pain, but it's the only way. To see a
list of these entities, GOOGLE for "HTML Entity".
