I¹m having trouble displaying Danish text in my forms using the struts tags
and I think it related to an error with how freemarker gets the locale. I¹m
getting a lot of question marks in the text, but if I set the server local
to Danish, all works as expected. Obviously that¹s not a solution as the
other languages also have problems.
For example the s:select tag is incorrectly displaying some Danish text. But
if I go in and edit the freemarker template file and change the label
display from ${} notation to one using <@s.property /> tag it works as
expected.
Here¹s the details
<@s.property value="%{parameters.label}"/> prints the correct text:
Hvornår (ca.) begyndte de nuværende rygsmerter eller bensmerter (iskias)?
But ${parameters.label?html} prints texts with ?¹ substituted for
unsupported characters :
Hvorn?r (ca.) begyndte de nuv?rende rygsmerter eller bensmerter (iskias)?
I can see one solution is to change all the freemarker template files and
replace ${} with <@s.property/>.
But I¹m sure there has to be a simpler solution.
Please, please help. As at the rate I¹m going I won¹t be needing a haircut
for a while.
