Hi!
I was trying to submit a html form which has a <html:file> tag and others <html:text> and <html:textarea> tags. I have specified âmultipart/form-dataâ to the parameter enctype in <html:form> and I have set character-encoding in all JSP pages through the following tag: ï<%@ page language="java" pageEncoding="UTF-8" contentType="text/html;charset=utf-8" %> I have override the method handleRequest() in a subclass of org.apache.struts.upload.CommonsMultipartRequestHandler and I have put the following tag in struts-config file: <controller contentType="text/html;charset=utf-8" locale="true" nocache="true" multipartClass="br.com.agenciaclick.struts.MyMultiPartClassHandler"/> but it was not enough, because the following conflict: If the enctype of form is set to "multipart/form-data", the file submmited are well parsed and received by the server, but the text fields have not their own enctype. Thus the enctype found to each text field are "null" and the method "addTextParameter()" inside "org.apache.struts.upload.CommonsMultipartRequestHandler" class treat them as "ISO-8859-1", like this line of code: value = item.getString("ISO-8859-1"); It would better if the information configured through <controller> tag in struts-config file was passed as parameter through the methods until here, and then the line of code above should use the character encoding specified by the programmer. I have implemented this solution in my project and it has working well.
