I gave the "add the filter and bunch of Spring jars" method a try and it turned out to be a success! Fantastic!
Filter code : <filter> <filter-name>characterEncodingFilter</filter-name> <filter-class>org.springframework.web.filter.CharacterEncodingFilter</filter-class> <init-param> <param-name>forceEncoding</param-name> <param-value>true</param-value> </init-param> <init-param> <param-name>encoding</param-name> <param-value>UTF-8</param-value> </init-param> </filter> <filter-mapping> <filter-name>characterEncodingFilter</filter-name> <url-pattern>/*</url-pattern> </filter-mapping> And all the jars from Spring 3.1.0 M distro were copied in the tomcat/lib folder. Andre & Cris, a beer in your name tonight.
