I am trying to read in a number of text files that contain translations (using French in this example) and store them in my applications app scope. The file I am reading in looks like this: http://screencast.com/t/DZTv3iVrbyo
When I dump the results from reading in the file, or try to use them in output, the accents get munged: http://screencast.com/t/aoRcLWWHn I have tried everything I can think of to get this to work and everything has failed. I have tried manually setting the charset on the CFFILE tag and that has not helped. I tried using UTF-8, and WINDOWS-1255. Since I have numerous language files I have even tried implementing this java class org.mozilla.universalchardet.UniversalDetector that detects the encoding of a file, and then using the detected encoding when reading in the translation files. But no matter what I do, the encoding is not preserved. Note, this library tells me my French files are "WINDOWS-1255"./ Does anyone have any suggestions on how I can handle this?
