Hello,
I'm having trouble convincing tomcat 6.0 to take UTF-8 strings.
I created an encoding filter with no luck.
/**
Here is the Utf8 Filter that fails for me in
Tomcat 6.0.20 / Eclipse-Galileo / Windows Vista (6.0.6002) <---> Firefox 3.6.3.
java version "1.6.0_20"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0_20-b02)
Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 16.3-b01, mixed mode)
Everything is on my laptop (http://localhost:8060).
What I do is create a GET string (based on parameters from a
showModalDialog)
by script and send it (from Firefox) to the (localhost) server
which is running under eclipse with a breakpoint in the EncodingFilter.
Note that the system locale is ro_RO (may have an influence)
*
* set in appl/WebContent/web.xml:
*
<filter>
<filter-name>EncodingFilter</filter-name>
<filter-class>ro.lutic.transcode.EncodingFilter</filter-class>
<init-param>
<param-name>encoding</param-name>
<param-value>UTF-8</param-value>

</filter>

public class EncodingFilter implements Filter

/*

Here is also a page that sends a failing request:

function send()
{
window.location="test.jsp?Name=larevolu%C8%9Bie";//"test.jsp?Name="+escape(Utf8encode("larevoluție"))
}
</script>
