The combo ( as well as all other components ) are pure client side, so it must work correctly with any encoding ( which supported by browser )
In common case it means
    - page must be loaded in correct encoding
    - if list of values loaded from XML, it must contain valid encoding attribute
       <?xml version="1.0" encoding="iso-8859-1" ?>

Please be sure to try latest version of dhtmlxcombo (1.2 , can be downloaded from dhtmlx.com ) there were some issues with non-utf encoding in previous versions of combo.

If problem still occurs for you - please provide any kind of sample where problem occurs for you ( xml - in case of loading from xml, or HTML snippet )
