Hi! I had to implement a "CharsetFilter" like mentioned here: http://wiki.apache.org/tomcat/Tomcat/UTF-8 (had some problems with "east-european" characters)!
Hope this helps, H ________________________________________ Von: Dave [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Gesendet: Samstag, 07.

I added the following to the beginning of each jsp page. <%@ page language="java" contentType="text/html; charset=UTF-8" %> After the page shows up, the browser says UTF-8. This is great. when I typed in some chinese characters using InputText, and left another InputText empty(required) that would cause validation error and force JSF to re-display the page, the chinese characters became question marks(?) after display back. The page says UTF-8. Will browser(IE) encode everything in UTF-8? How about server-side (JSF)? any character conversions? I tried to add encoding="UTF-8" to <h:form>, but it is not allowed. Thanks for help. Laurie Harper <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Does the browser(IE) or do the encoding of characters? If the inputText component has an initial value, it will be encoded server-side using the view's output encoding. When you submit the form, the browser will encode the current value of the inputText using whatever encoding it chooses to submit with -- usually the same as the encoding of the page containing the form. >> I set the browser(IE) encoding to Unicode before typing the East Asia >> characters, after submit, the browser encoding changed to Western >> Europe(ISO). So it looks like you're sending the browser a page that's encoded as ISO-8859-something, not UTF-8. That wont work for Asian characters, of course. >> From browser view/source, >> >> > CONTENT="text/html;charset=UTF-8"> >> >> it says UTF-8. That's in your 'meta' tag in the HTML 'head'? What do you have in your JSP to specify the page encoding, other than the meta tag? Are you using a page directive? The meta tag is not enough by itself to tell the JSP engine to use UTF-8 encoding. The JSP engine needs to know the correct output encoding to use. If it's using one encoding (ISO-8859-?), but your meta tag specifies the page uses a different encoding (UTF-8), things are going to get messed up; the data is sent in IS0-8859-? but the browser is trying to decode it using UTF-8.
