url encoding gets wrong with åöä?

hi!

i'm trying to put out links from my xml file but the url encoding gets wrong
with evd for some reason.

my for each-loop contains this line:
<a><xsl:attribute
name="href">http://gulasidorna.eniro.se/query?what=yp&amp;search_word=<xsl:va
lue-of select="word"/></xsl:attribute><xsl:value-of select="word"/></a>

for example when i use the word "Avhdmtning". the url commes out as
"Avh%C3%A4mtning" and the link text as "Avh&auml;mtning".

the encoding in the url is wrong. it should be Avh%E4mtning and i can't
understand why i get Avh%C3%A4mtning??

all files (xml, xsl and output are UTF-8) and i use ASP to transform my xml.
does anybody know how to correct this?

thanks!
