[Solved] German Umlaute
Thanks to all for your help. I finally found the problem: one of the tiles had set its encoding to UTF-8 *argh*. After I removed that, everything worked perfect. Philipp - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: Re[2]: German Umlaute
Since you see to experience your problem in request processing, may be set the encoding with the VM: -Dfile.encoding="ISO-8859-1" or UTF-8 if you like. Also the locale of your operating system might play a role. If its a UNIX/Linux box, do you have the german locale installed?

Going directly to UTF-8 solves all that. Is there any good reason not to use UTF-8 by default? AFAIK not. Maybe there are still some very old browsers around which doesn#t support UTF-8. In our case we have a DB in which all texts are stored as ISO-8859-1, so it is easier for us to display the pages in ISO-8859-1, too. So generally there are only legacy reasons not to use UTF-8 - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Re: German Umlaute
I don´t think it worth the effort but you can encode the string in base64 and it will work for sure!!

RE: Special Characters (german Umlaute)
This is something I've been wondering: is it absolutely necessary to convert text files using this tool? I use UTF-8 encoding for the ApplicationResources.properties_?? files, I indicate that UTF-8 is the encoding of my web pages, with the tag and it works just fine. Is this just coincidence and should I not count on this to work anytime, anywhere? On my website under http://jeroen.kransen.nl:8080/belbin/form/introductie.jsp I'm making a small personality test and use different languages, it's still under construction and only complete in NL and EN so far, but the characters such as Umlauts (or the NL trema's which is basically the same thing) and the Cyrillic alphabet work on all browsers I tried so far. This way we can just edit the texts of any character set as we do with plain ASCII and don't have to perform the additional step. Generally the tendency seems to be that using different character encodings is becoming more and more transparent. > -Oorspronkelijk bericht- > Van: Ralf Schneider [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Verzonden: dinsdag 4 mei 2004 10:34 > Aan: Struts Users Mailing List > Onderwerp: Re: Special Characters (german Umlaute) > > Am Montag, 3.

Thanks, works fine! The only thing I have to manage now is to automate this task within Eclipse 3.0M8. At the moment, there is no build.xml file in my project. So, Eclipse must somehow know what to do with the resource files as they are copied automatically from the source to the classes directory when they are saved. How can I tell Eclipe not only to copy them but to run native2ascii? Ralf. - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
RE: Special Characters (german Umlaute)
You can use the native2ascii application that is bundled with your JDK to automatically convert your native-encoded file with umlauts to \u format encodings. -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, May 03, 2004 2:50 PM To: Struts Users Mailing List Subject: Re: Special Characters (german Umlaute) Hi Ralf, use unicode in the resource bundle. \u00c4 = Ä \u00e4 = ä and so on.

Special Characters (german Umlaute)
Hi, my web application loads german strings from a resource bundle. Unfortunately, the special characters (german Umlaute like Ã, Ã, Ã) are displayed incorrectly if they come from the resource bundle. When I write them directly into the HTML code they are displayed correctly. At the beginning of my JSP file I have this line: <%@ page contentType="text/html; charset=UTF-8" %> And the HTML block is opened with this line: What do I have to change to get the special characters displayed as they were written in the resource bundle?
