This can happen if you use JSTL tags which overwrite whatever response
encoding you set.

This can be fixed by using a filter to force the encoding

> I am using Struts for a web-application and the web-page should be in

> Content-Type: text/html;charset=ISO-8859-1. I take the

>  - in the struts config file: 
> 
>               <controller contentType="text/html;charset=UTF-8"
> nocache="true" />
> 
> - in the main tiles layout:
> 
>             <%@ page language="java" contentType="text/xml;
> charset=UTF-8" %> (at the top)
> 
>             <meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html;
> charset=UTF-8">( in the head part of the document)

> The page is valid xhtml 1.0 transitional and I get no errors what so
