[Zope] French language problems

[Peter Bengtsson]

I want to "filter" the user input a bit.
If somebody submits name="éèà", in the end I want: name="eea"

So I tried this:

<pseudo atr="filling in the input name='é'">
print self.REQUEST['name'], 'é'
print self.REQUEST['name'] == 'é'
</pseudo>

This returns
'\303\251', 'é'
0

Basically, how do I compare self.REQUEST['name'] with 'é' and get true?
(assuming the name variable is set to "é". (you understand what I mean)

Any hints of the right approach?
