Show your code. If you type these directly, they should display.

The code is alert("Bitte geben Sie einen Dateinamen für den Artikel an.");show some other character in the place of "ü"

That code works fine. Check the character encoding in your browser.

So you're using the same browser and it works fine for a page rendered by one server, but not the other?

Check the settings, e.g. the charset.
