I have a form containing text areas. When I copy a bunch of character

into the text are, it displays normally. When I save the data, the
database stores the characters properly, when the data returns to the
s:textarea I displays with ?? replacing some characters.
I can't figure out where this is happening. When I write the data out
to the page as text it all displays properly. When I initially paste
it into the textarea it displays correctly, so my browser supports the
character set (ISO-8859-1 or Latin-1). It's only when it comes from
the database to the textarea that the characters do not display. And
I verified that the database can handle the characters and that they
are stored correctly.
This causes a problem when the user saves the second time, the ? get
saved in the db as ?.
Any ideas as to what is happening or how to fix it?
Thank you,
Rich
- Are the characters retrieved from the database correctly? (i.e. if you
check the data you're sending to the textarea, is it right?)
- What character encoding are you using to serve the page?
- Do you have a @page directive in the JSP specifying the correct
character encoding?
- Do you have a meta-equiv element in your HTML <head> area to tell the
browser what encoding the page is in?
- I assume you are using Struts :-) What version?
