But the value is not correctly displayed, just strange signs. Do you know what to do?

verify everything :)

all this encoding/decoding stuff just makes sure the bytes sent are proper, it doesn't ensure the HTML/HTTP is interpreted as utf

You say some browsers are not displaying what you want? Start with the browsers (page info, error console, view source .... ) then move on to http://validator.w3.org/unicorn/

For CGI.pm 


$ perl -le " use CGI -utf8; my $q = CGI->new; print $q->header, $q->st
+art_html "
Content-Type: text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1
