clean utf-8 data?

2002-03-26 23:04:46

Hi there...I'm new to this list and was wondering if i could be pointed in the 
right direction.

I have a Perl CGI Script which inserts form data from a html document into a
Postgres Database and recently have been unable to import the postgres
database after upgrading. It seems to be that the unicode characters are
preventing the postgres import from performing successfully (The encoding is
set to unicode for the dbase).

My question is...Is there a module which can take user-supplied text fields and 
convert them
to properly encoded utf-8?

I have been looking at Unicode::String but it seems to remove the "accented e" 
and other chars etc

TIA
