title: How to encode french/spanish characters to use clickatell's http api?
body: <p>I think some of you have experience working with Clickatell. My problem is: when I send a message through their http api using french or spanish characters (URL encode), they are not displayed (the characters) on the phone.</p>
  
  <p>I'm using this -guide-:
  http:// support.clickatell.com /faq.php?mode=view_entry&amp;kbid=121&amp;kbcat=26</p>
  
  <p>I already tested it with several phones and they all show the same: " a va! mon l ve mi ni a?"
  It should be "ça va! mon élève mi niña?" (or something pretty similar)</p>
  
  <p>Unfortunately their support is not quite specific (for me), and I'm a little confused now, this is what I got:</p>

  <p>Thereafter, please URL Encode your text= parameter according to the above standards to have your French characters display correctly on your handset. </p>
