By the way, if the following link is correct, then I believe my suggested patch would be necessary.
It seems as though the attempt by the filter to set the charset is useless when uploading a file. "Character transcoding is NOT performed for forms that are enctype="multipart/form-data"." -- that is what the person concluded at least. http://www.mail-archive.com/tomcat- [EMAIL PROTECTED]/msg91586.html Anyway, for simplicity sake, I suggest modifying the multipart attribute of the dbforms tag. If a value such as "UTF-8" is used instead of true, we turn multipart on and convert the parameters to UTF-8 or whatever is specified in the tag. "true" of course would use system default. > public String getParameter(String name) { > try { > Vector values = (Vector) parameters.get(name); > > if ((values == null) || (values.size() == 0)) { > return null; > } > > String value = (String) values.elementAt(0); > //patch > value = new String(value.getBytes("UTF-8")); //The other possibility may be that we need to use -- could you try it out and let me know value = new String(value.getBytes("ISO-8859-1"),"UTF-8"); > //patch over > return value; > } catch (Exception e) { > return null; > } > } > -- Shawn <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: IT Product Guide on ITManagersJournal Use IT products in your business?
