Hi!

I couldn't reproduce this in i18n samples using:
Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:1.2.1) Gecko/20021130
Win 2K
JDK 1.3.1
Tomcat 4.12

The only browser I found so far which displays the page spontaneously in UTF-8 is the new Safari Browser from Apple. So it seems to be a client problem...
...if there only wasn't the fact that the following page http://www.arabynet.com (I found the link in this list) displays well in UTF-8 in Mozilla (Linux OSX), IE5.2 (OSX), Chimera (OSX). Why??? This makes me think this cannot be only a client/platform problem. hmm...?

The only minor problem compared to IE 6.0 was non-readable window title
(produced from <TITLE> element in HTML), but it can be a font problem and
definitely is not a problem of Cocoon.

Subject: i18n: setting the client's character coding/charset to utf


Hi,
I want to be able to display (and edit via a web form) articles in
different languages. Latin1 encoding is not sufficient because there
are articles in Russian and Japanese as well. To store the articles on
the server I use the latest (7.3.1) Postgresql with Database encoding
set to UNICODE. So far everything works fine.

In the sitemap I set the encoding as follows
<map:serializer logger="sitemap.serializer.html" mime-type="text/html"
name="html" pool-grow="4" pool-max="32" pool-min="4"
src="org.apache.cocoon.serialization.HTMLSerializer">
<buffer-size>1024</buffer-size>
<encoding>UTF-8</encoding>
</map:serializer>

This writes the tag in the head section of my HTML document
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8">

That seems to be what I need, but it seems not to be sufficient:

PROBLEM: When I call the Page in a UTF capable Browser (Mozilla 1.2)
the character coding is set to ISO-8859-1. Only if I manually select
Unicode from the menu everything displays fine. But if I reload the
page the coding switches back to ISO-8859-1!

I get the same results when calling the cocoon i18n samples page.
(tested with Mozilla 1.2 on Mac OSX and Linux)

Any ideas how I can force the client to switch to UTF-8?

Thanks
/Leo
