Getting NCR values

Hello,
when I submit a form and then use hdf.getValue('Query.x',''), I want
to give NCR values
(http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Numeric_character_reference). I don't
have  any problem when my clearsilver version is
python-clearsilver-0.9.14 (in windows), but when I use my code on e
ubuntu system with Python2.5 and clearsilver (clearsilver-0.10.3-4.1)
I don't get NCR values for my unicode enteries, how can I solve this?

(character sets of pages are iso-8859-1),

In brief I want to get NCR values from my submitted forms via
clearsivler when my operating system (server) is ubuntu and my
clearsilver version is 0.10.3-4.1 and I code in Python2.5, how can I
do that?

thanks
