By this I mean: À, ê etc.

These are creating some problems for some mobile users, some can view them some can not (the page is returned as invalid wml), they sometimes get submitted on user inputs via a php form.

How can I make them into valid wml?

they will need encoding into wml like & in wml is & you need the equiv for those - i had a nightmare with this when we launched our nerwegian and german wap sites, simply beacuse the funny character set uses some odd chars

I've already got it to do the basics like &, £, $, using PHP, it just doesn't seem to do foreign characters.
