There's a useful line of enquiry in this scenario involving replacement characters, which can take you from a meaningful character to � in two misunderstandings about encoding.

If you say it's intermittent and you can't replicate it, it could be that some browsers are making the wrong guess about the encoding of the form - check that _everything_ about the form is iso-8859-1: the http content-type header, the declarations in the html, and the way any accented or non-ascii characters have been saved in the php/templates.
