Dear Leos,
Thank you for you help.
Your code is working with UTF-8 user input in an form embeded in
an UTF-8 charset page. My situation is the page is set as UTF-8, but
usr's input may be Shift-JIS. I am using IE and I got corrupted parameter
String by calling getParameter() and change it's coding afterwards.
I'm thinking:
1) how can I get the raw form input in servlets? But if the browser send
it in wrong way, then forget about it. In W3C's recommendation, there is
a new attribute "ACCEPT-CHARSET" in the "form" tag which I guess
should allow user designate specific charset used for sending user's typein.
But neither Netscape nor IE support this attribute right now.
2) Use JavaScript or whatever to change the current page's charset before
submit the form. Anybody try this?
Thanks for any help,
Ning
