How to use accents in citations?

Indeed when I use the following code in latex

Il est "dans l'allée."

I get the following sentence in pdf:

Il est "dans l'allee."

I use the followings packages:

 \usepackage[frenchb]{babel}
 \usepackage[utf8]{inputenc}
 \usepackage[T1]{fontenc}
 \usepackage[a4paper=true,ps2pdf=true,pagebackref=true]{hyperref}
 \usepackage{graphicx}
 \usepackage{fullpage} 
 \usepackage{listings}
 \usepackage{upquote}
 \usepackage[compact]{titlesec}

Welcome to TeX.sx! Please add a minimal working example (MWE) that illustrates your problem. – Joseph Wright♦ Aug 17 '11 at 8:03
Works for me with \documentclass{article} and evince. Have a look at the LaTeX output for warning messages, e.g. regarding missing fonts. – mhp Aug 17 '11 at 8:13
There are problems with accents in bibtex citations, but since you show no detail of your problem, it's difficult to be sure. bibtex8 may help, but the real solution is to switch to biblatex (a universal panacea!) – wasteofspace Aug 17 '11 at 9:00
