Specifying char-set does not help. At least, when I add
meta tag like this:

<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8">
</head>

It does not really matter what charset I use.
Whenever I ask (int)request.getParameter( "text" ).charAt( 0 ) It gives
me the very same character code 65533.

Please, any ideas?

with best regards,
Taavi
