I've figured it out - you have to stick in a meta tag to force the
browser to use UTF-8. Something like.

<head>
<meta charset="UTF-8"></meta>

Some stuff...
</body>
</html>
No, that tells the browser what encoding the page is in. Forms have
an "accept-encoding" tag which
tells the browser how to encode the user input that it's going to post.
Note that I simply cannot get it to work with ISO8859_1 encoding.
That's probably because you're not doing it right ;-)

Hi All.
I've bumped into an incompatibility between WebObjects 5.3 and
5.4. In 5.3, I could submit a form value with non-ASCII
characters, and their encoding would be correctly interpreted. In
5.4, the encoding is misinterpreted.
I printed out the actual request contents, and, for instance e-
acute is sent as %E9, which as far as I know is correct ISO8859
encoding. I read in the release notes that WO 5.4 now defaults to
UTF8 encoding, so I tried to change the request's
defaultFormValueEncoding to ISO8859_1. Then it got interpreted as
a literal %E9!
Can anybody shed some light on this? I have searched the lists and
the Google, and have come up empty.
Thanks!
