I can't claim to know much about unicode but this doesn't appear to be a jQuery problem. I was able to produce a test case (attached) where jQuery did just fine for me although it wasn't easy. I finally was able to produce the code written in Microsoft Word and did a Save As to a text file with UTF-8 format. I then renamed it as a .js file and it worked. Until I found the right document format it wasn't working.

Hopefully this helps.
