Which serendipity language are you using?

What's your URL about your sidebar error?

The english language uses ISO-8859-1 as Charset. You cannot use it for posting entries in foreign languages.

You need to use a language specific to your homelanguage. Or edit your serendipity_lang_en.inc.php file and edit the line where it says LANG_CHARSET to "UTF-8" instead of "ISO-8859-1". Only then you can must multibyte characters properly recognized by the browser.
