Hello, doing the following I do not get the expected results. The german umlaut with "ISO-8859-1" converts magically to "UTF-8". All encodings (html-/xml-serializers, xml-files, xsl-files) are set to "ISO-8859-1"
src.xml: -------- <html> <head> ... <a href="dest?selection=ö">ö</> (ö = german umlaut for "oe") ... </html> Sitemap snippet: ---------------- ... <map:generate type="file" src="src.xml" /> <map:serialize type="html" /> ... Produced output: ---------------- ... <a href="dest?selection=%C3%B6">ö</a> ... If I click the link I see the same "selection"-string in the Browser URL. I did expect the destination "dest" restoring the same character with the same encoding. dest.xml -------- ... <dest> Selection= </dest> ... dest.xsl -------- ... <dest> <xsl:value-of select="dest" /> <xsl:value-of select="$selection" /> </dest> ... the sitemap ends with a xml-serializer Output ------ <dest>Hi="an A with a tilde on top"</dest> This funny character is an ö (ö) in UTF-8. I did try some proposals like setting encoding in an action (request.setCharacterEncoding). Nothing works for me. Any ideas? I have to send selection-criteria for a database as URL-parameters.
