insert special characters

• Error

To insert a special character within tiki-editpage.php in 1.9DR4 you have to use templates/tiki-special_chars.php which cannot be accessed because of .htaccess settings.
a better solution because that little bloody window is a pain anyway (and inserts the characters always in the end of the editing window:

I have done a fix, by including the following lines (see solution) after the table row with the smileys and cutting the link to tiki-special_chars from below the quicktags:

If well the suggested solution below could work, what i did was moving that file from the templates directory to the main one, to avoid having executable code in the templates directory. That way, the file could be easily improved in a future (or upgraded by an installable module) to have more selectable special chars or redesign the interface.
