In my servlets and jsps i use String str=new String(str.getBytes("8859_1"), "big5"); to convert input parameters to big5. However, there are some chinese characters that can't be converted with this. So i want to key-in the utf-8 representation of a chinese character instead of the character itself. do you have any idea? Could someone show me a piece of code please? Thanks in advance Best regards :)
