Hi,

I'm using Cocoon 2 and Postgres 7 on Slackware 8, JDK 1.4.
My database and pages contain French characters (like é,à,ç, ...)
I use XSP to get the data from PG.

I can show all the data correctly when I set the encoding to ISO-8859-1.
I wrote some plsql procedures to store data.  I call them from my XSP pages.
This is where it goes wrong: the French characters are stored in an unreadable 
manner.  (Storing is the only thing where it goes wrong)

Calling the function from the command line with the French characters works 
fine.  It's only when I post the page and call the function that it goes 
wrong.

Any ideas ??




Here's some of my code:

1) Sample XSP where it goes wrong
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>

    <xsp:page language="java"
                        xmlns:xsp="http://apache.org/xsp";
                        xmlns:esql="http://apache.org/cocoon/SQL/v2";
                        xmlns:xsp-request="http://apache.org/xsp/request/2.0";
                        xmlns:xsp-session="http://apache.org/xsp/session/2.0";
                        create-session="true">

        <html>
                <head>
                        <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" 
href="./../css/pierrefabre.css"/>
                </head>

                <body>
                        <div style="position:absolute; left: 5px; top: 5px">
                                <img src="./../images/product.png"/>
                        </div>

                        <div style="position:absolute; left: 60px; top: 5px">
                                <h1>Nouveau type de cancer</h1>
                        </div>


                        <div style="position:relative; top: 40px">


            <esql:connection>
                <esql:pool>pierrefabre</esql:pool>

                <esql:execute-query>
                        <esql:query>
                                select fnCancerTypeInsert ('<xsp-request:get-parameter 
name="description"/>')
                        </esql:query>

                        <esql:results>
                                <esql:row-results>
                                        <xsp:logic>
                                                if (<esql:get-string 
column="fnCancerTypeInsert"/>.equals("1"))
                                                {
                                                        <p class="error">Ce type de 
cancer existe déja.  Les modifications ne 
sont pas enrégistrées.</p>
                                                } ;
                                                if (<esql:get-string 
column="fnCancerTypeInsert"/>.equals("0"))
                                                {
                                                        <p class="message">Les 
modifications sont enrégistrées.</p>
                                                };
                                        </xsp:logic>

                                        <input type="submit" value="Rétour" 
onclick="window.location = './cancertypes.list.html';" class="button"/>
                                </esql:row-results>
                        </esql:results>

                </esql:execute-query>
            </esql:connection>
                        </div>
                </body>
        </html>
    </xsp:page>

2) Cocoon.xconf setting for the database
<datasources>
    <jdbc name="pierrefabre">
      <pool-controller max="10" min="5"/>
      
<dburl>jdbc:postgresql://10.32.1.3:5432/pierrefabre?charSet=LATIN1</dburl>
      <user>postgres</user>
      <password/>
    </jdbc>
  

3) The pgplsql function called in that page 
create function fnCancerTypeInsert (varchar(50)) returns integer as
'
        declare
                p_description alias for $1 ;

                v_count integer ;
        begin
                select into v_count count(*) from tblCancerTypes
                        where upper(description) = upper(p_description) ;

                if v_count > 0 then
                        return 1 ;
                end if ;

                insert into tblCancerTypes
                        values (p_description) ;

                return 0 ;
        end ;
' language 'plpgsql' ;
