Well, the default content-type for httpd is text/plain, so if you have a
controller servlet something like:
protected void doGet(HttpServletRequest req, HttpServletResponse res)
throws ServletException, IOException {
req.setAttribute("myBean", myBean);
RequestDispatcher rd =
getServletContext().getRequestDispatcher("/WEB-INF/jsps/display.jsp");
rd.include(req, res);
}
Then the JSP page will not be able to add it's content-type header, so httpd
will add it's default content-type header when the response is sent back.
We have this in our spring controller...
...
response.setContentType("text/html; charset=UTF-8");
response.setCharacterEncoding("UTF-8");
Writer writer= response.getWriter();
if(bText) {
writer.append("<html><head><meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\"
content=\"text/html; charset=UTF-8\">\n</head>\n<body>\n");
}
writer.append(pageBody);
if(bText) {
writer.append("\n</body></html>");
}
...
And the funny thing is that it seems to work... but only for straight
tomcat. I will make a confession - I do mainly .net these days and my
java (particularly web) is lacking in any real depth of understanding.
So I am guessing from your comments that the default content type of
tomcat is text/html? That is what we get with straight tomcat...
In any case, if this code is wrong then can someone give me a
suggestion to make it right?
Thanks again.
Anton
