Shouldn't matter since the browser includes codepage info in the data
sent, so the server can still deal with it just fine.

Now if the user isn't sending the character they think they are sending,
well that's just typing the wrong character.  Of course the vast majority
of users don't use multiple codepages anyhow and never switch.

The server still ought to support unicode so it can handle all the
characters a user might send.
