[TYPO3-mvc] UPDATE Problems with Umlaute

[Michael Knoll]

Hello list (again),

is there any encoding happening to POST data when mapping this on domain 
model properties?

All Umlaute are working, if I map them directly from standard FLUID form 
to Extbase Domain objects.

If I'm doing this:

public function updateItemTitleAction(Tx_Yag_Domain_Model_Item $item, 
$itemTitle) {
	$item->setTitle($itemTitle);
	
	$this->itemRepository->update($item);
	
	$this->returnDataAndShutDown();
}

and $itemTitle comes from a Ajax call GET parameter, it is correctly 
encoded with utf-8 in my php script ( die($itemTitle) gives me a correct 
Umlaut-Encoding in Firebug), but it is not saved correctly in the database.

Any idea what I can do?

Thanks a lot

Mimi
