Locale object is set to to "en_US" by default. And I am using Tomcat 4.1.18
on Win2K. i have also tried the same on SunSOLARIS and Linux.
If I use servlets instead of JSP it works fine and output the characters as
required. But i guess its the JSPWriter that does something which shows teh
question marks in place of those characters.
However, the same JSP code works in for Resin and Weblogic.
Baffled....
