Description

When adding categories in administration that contains unicode characters such as the norwegian characters "æøå" they get displayed as a non-printable character (displaying a question mark). 

Nyf�dte

I'm not sure what charset is used for these characters. Changing the browser to display as ISO-8859-1 or (-15) also displays it wrong. 

Nyfï¿œdte

The category was added from the categories page, "wp-admin/categories.php". This page uses an Ajax call to add a new category. I guess this is where it goes wrong.

This is when using Konqueror on Linux. Firefox gets it right.
