[TYPO3-mvc] Problems with Umlaute

[Michael Knoll]

Hi Stefan,

thx a lot, I will give it a try. Somehow, the problems with the "normal" 
forms are gone now - I only have problems with the ajax stuff - which is 
actually send by GET and not by POST - so there seems to be some 
encoding problem there.

Thanks!

Mimi
