Render danish/foreign characters in template engine error

Both razor and old html template engine aren't rendering characters like ÆØÅ.  <globalization requestEncoding="utf-8" responseEncoding="utf-8" fileEncoding="utf-8" /> is set. Text from the database is rendered correctly.

What am I doing wrong?

You have to make sure that you save your template files with the right encoding, i.e. utf-8. Otherwise your Danish characters (and other exotic ones) may end up looking like this

For anyone else having this problem. You can change the encoding on the files in Visual Studio by choosing "Save as" in the File menu. Press the extend arrow on the save button and choose UTF-8 (second from the top i think).
