Strange....

I come from a neighbour country. Our letters do not have accents
but little dots above them. But "ZPT" does not have problems
with this. In fact, it should not have problems with accented letters
either.

You should check the "Content-Type" header of your HTTP request.
It should be something like

	Content-Type: text/html

or

	Content-Type: text/html; charset=iso-8859-15

*If* you use "utf-8" as source encoding of your ZTPs,
then it should be

	Content-Type: text/html; charset=utf-8

"trim" means what? Limit its size: this looks like "string[:len]".

Read the Zope Book (2.6/2.7 edition, online).
Work through the Python tutorial.
