I can specify URIEncoding="UTF-8" in Tomcat's connector settings within the server.xml file. Now, my Tomcat server correctly reads the URL GET parameters correctly...sending out "Hello, José!" or "Hello, 田中!" as expected.
However, there's still a problem. What if I want to POST some non-ASCII data, presumably to enter into a backend database? All is well since I set that URIEncoding flag, right? Wrong. It turns out that Tomcat, doesn't use this URIEncoding flag for POSTed form data. So, what does it use? ISO-8859-1 of course! So now, I'm back to where I started, and my imaginary application still greets Mr. ç”°ä¸ instead of Mr. 田中. Not good. Why is this so? Can I get the POST to behave the same as the GET??
