showing garbage character in asp.net page, when special character ñ (Alt+164) is enter along with name.

this is extract of code that is causing problem:

Response.ContentType = "text/xml"
.............
.............

dim strFrom as string = "Johnñ"

Me.Response.AddHeader("from", strFrom)

.............
.............

" document.all." & Me.UniqueID.ToString & "_LblFrom.innerHTML='<B>From:</B> ' + " & "oXMLHTTP.getResponseHeader('from')" & vbNewLine

I know I have to convert it to different encoding or charset, I tried, it didnt work and not sure, please help.

Thanks.

You could try using HtmlEncode.

 dim strFrom as string = Server.HtmlEncode("John�")
