You need to declare your site's (or scripts for that matter) encoding.

You can use <meta charset="UTF-8"> in the HEAD of your site to tell the whole page to be UTF-8 encoded. --

OR

If you just need your script to be encoded .. You can encode JUST the script -- IE <script type="text/javascript" charset="utf-8" src="blah.js"/>

Either way you should always tell your site/script which character set you are using.
