RE: UTF-8 problems

2003-08-04 Thread Shanta B
Hi
 In Java 1.3, the default encoding is set to ISO-8859-1
which includes all the Country(German) special characters

In Java 1.4, the default encoding is set to ASCII
which converts all German special characters to '?'

The fix for this problem was just setting an environment variable
CATALINA_OPTS=-Dfile.encoding=ISO-8859-1

This problem was caused by your browser. The browser will use its own
encoding to encode form values post back. You need set proper encoding to
request - request.setEncoding(BROWSER_ENCODING). Or you can write a filter
to simplify your work.

 Hi,

 I have an text fields in a form that will contain UTF-8 characters e.g.
 ''.  I can retrieve utf-8 chars from the db and display them correctly
 in jsps via tomcat.  The only problem comes with submiting forms to
 tomcat.  request.getParameter() returns the incorrect value for the char
 e.g. '' instead of ''.

 AFAIK the default encoding of java is UTF-8 so I'm not to sure where to
 look. Anyone have any suggestions as to what I have to do?

 thanks
 Nathan
