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.
