Description:
------------
In the javascript code, the method "formEncode" uses the "escape" function which is ISO-8850 only. That implies all data sent are incorrectly encoded if the page is using another encoding (such as UTF), and therefore the data should be converted when received or could be considered corrupted.

To avoid that, you should change line 327 of HTML_AJAX.js

from

value = escape(el.value);

value = encodeURI(el.value);

I'm not sure about the other occurences of calling 'escape', though.

Test script:
---------------
escape('é');

Expected result:
----------------
%C3%A9

Actual result:
--------------
%E9
