I'm using zope.formlib to generate some HTML forms and I'm having some issues with character enconding.
The schema is like the followng:

You are using non-ASCII characters directly in the source code. Do you have a proper encoding declaration at the top of the file? http://docs.python.org/ref/encodings.html
Note that I'm actually using the u thing before the string, however, even so, the string is still incorrectly rendered.
The title and description strings get rendered like:
"Nosso número" (the ú char is not rendered correctly)
This certainly looks weird. It seems to be incorrectly encoded *twice*.
The browser is using UTF-8 enconding.
I should mention that I'm using Zope 3 formlib through Five in Plone 3.
How could I solve it? I have no idea where to start.
Specifying the source encoding correctly ought to work. To help search for the cause of the bug (or bugs) you may want to try title = _(u"Nosso n\u00FAmero") temporarily. FWIW the usual way is to use English titles in the source code and provide a .po file with translations. I'm not sure how to hook that up through Five.
