More Unicode and Legends :)

Hi all,

I am having two particular problems with my mapserver; I've been 
checking through the lists and documentation, however maybe an outside 
perspective is needed... any pointers are appreciated!

1) One of the layers in my map file displays unicode characters (e.g. Ä, 
Ç, Ë), however, odd symbols appear in the Chameleon app in their place. 
Is this language / unicode conversion supported in MapServer? I didn't 
find anything in the Chameleon list archives which suggested a fix. Is 
there a method of enabling its support?

2) In the past I had had problems with Legend template script disabling 
layers upon updating the webpage, however now I am having problems with 
the opposite... a particular layer will not hide after an update when 
its layer is unchecked! I've ensured that the layer status is set to 
'ON' in the map file. My Legend template code follows.

Best regards,
- Peter
