Have you set the

<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8">

for the html page you are displaying? If not, then the default encoding most
likely will be used for the page by the web browser.

Dual bit character setups may not be supported by your sql server, in which
case iso-8859-1 could be a better option, but in some cases only the 127 first
characters are supported, which makes that all "special" characters are
stripped away. So you need to check your sql servers documentation how (if
it's possible) to turn on support for "special" character and/or dual bit
character setups.
