A function like this should be implemeted:

function HTMLEncode(str){
     var aStr = str.split(''),
         i = aStr.length,
         aRet = [];

     while (--i) {
      var iC = aStr[i].charCodeAt();
       if (iC < 65 || iC > 127 || (iC>90 && iC<97)) {
        aRet.push('&#'+iC+';');
       } else {
        aRet.push(aStr[i]);
       }
    }
    return aRet.reverse().join('');
   }

Thanks for the bug report,

While doing some more research, I think this should be as option and not build 
in.

Why?
When you save text to database, all ë will be ë. This is good to render the 
content because doesn't have problems with Character Encoding, but if you want 
to search a word, like Citroën it will not show up since it is Citroën on DB.

Maybe it can be as part of Config Options since someone might need it. Default 
should not replace chars.
