Accented characters to Firefox: how? |

I'm sure the answer to this must be something simple about encodings, but I
haven't figured it out yet. Can you help?
Under Windows I edit text in emacs 22.3.1 with Western European accented
characters like ä, ü, ç and Ê, and I want to copy it from emacs to a
Firefox mail composition window. But the text appears correct only up to
(but not including) the first accented character, and after that is either
a series of question marks or else is strangely formatted including
question marks. For instance, the text
...accented characters like ä, ü, ç and Ê, and...
from the Emacs buffer becomes
...accented characters like ??, ?????, and...
How can I make this work properly?
Thanks.
Pete
