I'm confused about what I've heard about internationalization with JSPs.  What I
want to do is write one JSP file, and read the character set and user-visible
text from a ResourceBundle.  This works with HTML templates, as long as the
.properties files for the ResourceBundles are in the right codepage.  (The HTML
markup is in ASCII, no matter what character set the user-visible text uses.)

But what I'm hearing on the one hand is that the JSP itself has to be compiled
with the same character set or codepage as the user-visible text.  That would
mean that I would have to compile the JSP several times, once for each character
set.  Is this correct?

The other, conflicting thing I have heard is that you don't have to recompile
the JSP, but that you do have to create a special "out" writer (using Java
embedded in the JSP) and tell it what character set or codepage to use.  Is this
correct?

Who out there has actually done this?  What do I really have to do?  Help!
