Thanks for your reply. I did what you said and it didn't help. I think the key is to change the meta tag declaration. I do not know where to set it.

I had to set the encoding of the calling html page to ISO-8859-1. Now I'm using a htnl page generated by Cocoon. The default meta tag is <META http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8">. How or where can I change it to ISO-8859-1 from UTF-8? I've changed the encoding of form.xml, simple-page3html.xsl and sitemap.xmap to ISO-8859-1. It didn't help. What is the source code that sets the meta tag? More specifically, I'm using Cocoon 2.1 M2. you can go to http://localhost:8080/cocoon/samples/mail/sendmail/new.html. On this page, the meta is set to UTF-8. I need to have it changed to ISO-8859-1 to have some accented characters encoded correctly. Thanks in advance for any help.

Even if ISO-8859-1 is the correct encoding, you shall not add the <META> tag by hand. The serializer does it for you. So you will simply set the serializer's encoding to ISO-8859-1. But UTF-8 is a super set of ISO-8859-1, so there should be no problem when using it. The working "text" inputs show this. Now "file" inputs: Why do they depend on the form encoding? Shouldn't they simply allow to upload a file? Am I missing something? Joerg Yan, Charlene wrote: > I had encoding problems with accented characters too.
