Re: container-encoding vs. form-encoding... bug?

[Jan Hoskens]

You should set the container-encoding to ISO-8859-1 and leave the 
form-encoding as UTF-8. If I remember correctly, the container-encoding 
is a thing introduced with servlet api 2.3 while cocoon was coping with 
2.2 . The latter did pass everything in ISO and cocoon expects it to be 
ISO (will change probably in later cocoon versions). Remember to set 
your encoding in your serializers too (two places to look for! The 
element "encoding" AND attribute "mime-type" ):

<map:serializer logger="sitemap.serializer.xhtml" mime-type="text/html; 
charset=UTF-8" name="xhtml" pool-grow="2" pool-max="64" pool-min="10" 
src="org.apache.cocoon.serialization.XMLSerializer">
                 <doctype-public>-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 
Strict//EN</doctype-public>
                 
<doctype-system>http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd</doctype-system>
                 <encoding>utf-8</encoding>
         </map:serializer>

Kind regards,
Jan

Hi,
I'm using Cocoon 2.1.5.1 w/ Jetty 4.2.15.  xalan was throwing a 
SAXException trying to write a character (U2026, &hellip) that's not 
reppresentable "in the specified output encoding iso-8859-1".

I made sure I had <xml:output encoding="UTF-8"> everywhere, but the 
problem persisted.  Finally I figured out that I needed to check the 
encoding parameters in web.xml.  Sure enough, container-encoding and 
form-encoding were not set, and the comments indicate that they 
default to iso-8859-1.

So I set the container-encoding to UTF-8, and that didn't have any 
effect.  Only when I set form-encoding to UTF-8 did my problem go 
away.  The thing is, the character that was causing the problem isn't 
coming from the request!  I expected container-encoding to be the one 
that would effect the behavior I was seeing.

So, am I just not understanding something correctly?  Or is it a bug, 
and if so is it a problem with Cocoon or with Jetty?

Cheers,
Mark
