Special chars like "ã" followed by an "f"

programming flash

I’m loading text externally from XML… when I use special chars like “ã” that chars shows up followed by an “f”… Why this happens?!

Flash:
onLoad(){
System.useCodePage=true;
}

XML:
<?xml version=“1.0” encoding=“UTF-8”?>

Is something missing?!
