[Javascript] Accented Characters in Alert box

Thanks Peter and Andrew
It's an adaptation of Jacob Hage's Generic Form Validation
----------------------------------
language["header"]    =3D "Désol=E9...Veuillez vérifier ce(s)
champ(s):"

[...further...]

if (errors) {
alert(language["header"].concat("\n" + errors));
errors =3D "";
returnVal =3D false;
} else {
returnVal =3D true;
   }
----------------------------------

Should Alert : "D=E9sol=E9... Veuillez v=E9rifier ce(s) champ(s):"
But none of the character formatting above work.

Any clues?
PS: I'm on mac, but I don't see the problem.
Thanks!
