Special characters as tilde and spanish 'ñ' are not saved in WCM.

1) New Web Content
2) Type 'camión' as title
3) Type 'camión' as description

The special characters will be saved in the database as wrong characters, so web content display portlet retrieves the bad values.

If the special characters are forced in the database, the web content display portlet retrieves it well.
