encoded AJAX post data losing umlauted characters

This problem is driving me nuts!

I have data which I am posting to my web service as follows:

<code>
new Ajax.Request("bookmarkws.asmx/putBookmarks",
{method: "post",
contentType: 'application/x-www-form-urlencoded;
charset=UTF-8',
asynchronous:true,
postBody: "xml=" + escape(xml),
etc..
</code>

If I monitor the traffic (using Axis TCPMON) I can see the escaped
umlauts (e.g. %F6) in the post body. Unfortunately, they do not arrive
in my WebMethod. Other escaped characters (blanks, quotes etc.) are
properly decoded.

Ideas anyone? Please!

Paul
