Hi,
I'm a bit overwhelmed by the info here... just to clarify a couple of things:
>> 4) I make sure that this gets called somewhere on the request object:
>> req.setCharacterEncoding("UTF-8");// or UTF8, can't remember
This would be the same as
<%@ page contentType="text/html; charset=UTF-8"%>, no?
Can I call setCharacterEncoding(str) over and over with different encoding strings?
>> 5) I make sure that Velocity gets initialized with the right encoding:
>> Velocity.getTemplate(vm.getName(), "UTF8").merge(context, writer);
Hmm... I'm not using Velocity... does that mean this doesn't apply to me??
And btw, what was the problem you tried to solve?
I wrote a test page just now, and it looks like this:
=============================================
<%@ page contentType="text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1"%>
<%@ taglib uri="webwork" prefix="webwork" %>
<%@ taglib uri="webwork" prefix="ui" %>
<html>
<head><title>Hello</title>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8">
</head>
<body>
This is a test for russian.<br><br>
<webwork:i18n name="'community.form.Initializer'">
<webwork:text name="'community.text.welcome1'" /><br>
<webwork:text name="'community.text.welcome2'" /><br>
<webwork:text name="'community.text.welcome3'" /><br>
</webwork:i18n>
</body>
</html>
=============================================
where community.text.welcome1 is Russian, community.text.welcome2 is Hebrew, and
community.text.welcome3 is Japanese.
When I bring this page up in IE, I get this junk in the browser. I had to manually set
the encoding to UTF-8 in order to see them displayed correctly.
HOWEVER, if I change the charset in <%@ page contentType="text/html; charset=UTF-8"%>
I get junk that simply cannot be displayed correctly.
Does this mean I have UTF-8 characters being encoded in ISO-8859-1, in essense
"double-encoding"?? And how can I avoid this??
Thanks again,
James

Subject: [OS-webwork] Newbie: internationalization for Russian
Hi,
I'm trying to create a page that can be in multiple languages, namely
English, Dutch, Russian, and Japanese.
The resource bundles for them are all in the correct languages, and since
I'm working on Windows, I saved them in Notepad as unicode.
MyAction.properties
MyAction_ru.properties
MyAction_jp.properties
MyAction_nl.properties
Now, English and Dutch display fine, but whenever I switch to Russian, I
have to manually change the browser's encoding to "UTF-8" (and even this
doesn't display my russian text correctly, coming up with squares between
Russian characters).
I ran into this problem before with Japanese, and the solution was to put
<%@ page contentType="text/html; charset=Shift-JIS"%>
at the first line of my JSP page.
Now, since this application is to be in different languages all the time, I
can't do this. I instead need something like:
<%@ page contentType="text/html; charset=<webwork:text
name="'current.encoding'" />"%>
Which obviously doesn't work. And I've been banging my head for almost two
days now for this encoding thing... does anyone have any suggestions??
Thank you very much!
James
