Using jQuery's Ajax() method which defaults to UTF-8.

Basically when sending a string like this: Hauptstraße 11

it gets received like this in PHP: Hauptstra&65533;e 11

A workaround is to set the jQuery.Ajax() setting contentType to 'application/x-www-form-urlencoded'.
The default value is 'application/x-www-form-urlencoded; charset=UTF-8'
