title: Special Chars in Javascript (jQuery)
body: <p>I'm developing a web app in asp.net mvc using jquery, the language of application is pt-BR and some characteres are not displayed correctly, like accented charcacters and 'ç' char. Insted of this, a unknown char is displayed on browser. </p>
  
  <p>Is there any way to set the location on jquery ? Or on the file .js, .aspx?</p>
  
  <p>I am not doing an ajax call, I'm writing a text in elements of html like div, hyperlink, etc... something like this:</p>
  
  <pre><code>$("#myDiv").text("Água, Açúcar, e leite em pó");
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>But in my div is shown: "?gua, A??car, e leite em p?"</p>
  
  <p>I've set my globalization in web.config to pt-br, my html tag and meta tags to pt-br:</p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;!DOCTYPE html&gt;
  &lt;html lang="pt"&gt;  
  &lt;head&gt;   
     &lt;title&gt;...&lt;/title&gt;   
     &lt;meta charset="utf-8"&gt;
     &lt;meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=edge,chrome=1"&gt;  
     &lt;meta http-equiv="content-language" content="pt-br"&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Is there anything is missing ?</p>
  
  <p>Thanks</p>
