Turgay,
If you use Tomcat 4.0 (servlet spec 2.3), you can just wirte:
request.setCharacterEncoding("ISO-8895-9");
System.out.println(request.getParameter("filename"));
If you use Tomcat 3.2 (Servlet spec 2.2),
String data = request.getParameter("filename");
byte[] raw = data.getBytes("ISO-8859-1");
System.out.println(new String(raw, "ISO-8859-9"));
hope this helps,
Peiqiang Han
