Yes, I can't agree with this more u need to do sdome testing, use JUnit if u can But I would prefer not only use String.equals, but actually print out the HEX value of the string u need to print out the HEX value in: Just before the JSP form start submit when the action start process the form just before any database process after that, goto Mysql console and print out the HEX value that u just insert of update
and do the same when u retrieve that value from database in any case, all the above HEX values should be the same I know it is ignoring but many people go throught this, sometimes ago I have the exact problem like this when I use Mysql + PHP + SQL Server to do database sync.
