(again, as I have suggested before, Lima, you may want to spy your browser-tomcat traffic to make sure what bytes are transferred exactly, then you'll be sure who is mangling the data: Tomcat or browser, my feeling is that this is browser)
?

"application/x-www-form-urlencoded" is suitable ONLY for transferring ASCII
but according to this message the existing software

did you enjoy this "of course"? ;-)

Yup, but in practice I beleive that we have succeded many times to send cyrillics this way. The browser was running on Windows however. All the browsers (huh, do I remember it correctly?) were using windows-1251 and koi8-r when the page was encoded with the respective encoding).
Galeon, Mozilla and Tomcat running in Linux.

what language are you typing in? what kind of characters get mungled?
