Re: Problems with utf-8 encoding - continue
Why aren't you using setContentType("text/html, "utf-8") on the response?
What content-type is the server actually returning (use the live http
headers extension for firefox or something similar to find out).
What database and jdbc driver are you using? What method are you using
to store the string in the database?
I've had utf-8 trouble with several databases. For example mysql 4.1 +
the latest jdbc driver + setCharacterStream had some strange effects.
First of all you need to tell mysql to use utf-8 (it defaults to
something else) and even if you do that setCharacterStream has some
issues that go away if you use setString. Oracle on the other hand
cannot insert strings larger than 4KB with setString so you need to use
setCharacterStream. Incidently, the mysql driver implementation of
setCharacterString is implemented using setString!

I forgot to add my server.xml encoding definitions:

useBodyEncodingForURI="true"
minProcessors="5" maxProcessors="75"
enableLookups="true" redirectPort="8443"
acceptCount="100" debug="0" connectionTimeout="2"
useURIValidationHack="false"
disableUploadTimeout="true" />
I tried it with and without the useBodyEncodingForURI="true"directive.

FYI: This is "common knowledge" that used to be right, but isn't anymore. With the Oracle 10g JDBC driver you can set arbitrary length strings with setString http://www.oracle.com/technology/sample_code/tech/java/codesnippet/jdbc/clob10g/handlingclobsinoraclejdbc10g.html - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

As I use jsp, I don't know how can I control the response that way.
What content-type is the server actually returning (use the live http

I couldn't find if this extension is installed, or how to install it.
In the page info :
Type: text/html
Encoding: UTF-8
Meta:
Content-Type text/html; charset=UTF-8
What database and jdbc driver are you using? What method are you using

I use mysql 4.1.14 + connector 3.1.10
the url for the driver is:
"jdbc:mysql://"+Utils.getServerName()+":3306/"+Utils.getDatabaseName()+"?characterEncoding=UTF-8&characterSetResults=UTF-8"
the tables definitions:
ENGINE=MyISAM DEFAULT CHARSET=utf8

I use Statement class executeUpdate(String str) method to update and
executeQuery(String str) to query the database.
