Thanks, File encoding flag for java.exe? Sounds like an old version of Tomcat. I suppose you set this in web.xml now, or am I wrong?
- Jon [paste] In the Catalina.bat (windows) catalina.sh (windows) apache$jakarta_config.com (OpenVMS), file there must be a switch added to the call to java.exe. The switch is: -Dfile.encoding=UTF-8 I cannot find documentation for this environment variable anywhere or what it actually does but it is essential. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Jirole, Amar" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "'Struts Users Mailing List'" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Tuesday, March 09, 2004 5:20 PM Subject: RE: Problems with UTF-8 and forms > Hi, > We had the same problem but we are using weblogic.
