how about german umlaute öäü in the language files ?

[alwin4711]

Hi,
what is the correct way to handle german chracters (Umlaute) like äüö in the language files ?
For the moment i use the html format &auml or &uuml.
The problem ist that this will work for text labels but it works not for a button label.
For example the 'change profile' modul show the correct characters in haedline but wrong text in the button ...
any idea ?

this is the form code.....
echo form_submit('change_profile', $change_profile_caption, 'class="btn btn-primary" style="display:none;"');

but from where comes the $change_profile_caption variable ??
