I tested this code — it works as expected.

I have only one question: The character 'à' needs Unicode. You correctly prescribed the charset in the file, but did you save your file in UTF-8 encoding? If you did it wrong, it would not cause this error message anyway. Check up: maybe the file you deployed and ran and the code in your question are different?
