Hi Anthony,
Fianlly i solved the problem.
thanks a lot for your help.
I want to share my experiences with my mailing-list-mates,
may be someone else might get help.
Though at first it seems too complicated, actually it was very simple.
So my lesson from this experience is that:
"first try the simplest possible way, if it doesn't work then try other
methods"
now, when i replaced the charset=utf-8 setting with "big5",
then entering some test japanese characters , surprisingly it worked.
At the beginning i thought," in order to be able to use multiple charsets i
need to use
unicode encoding", but in reality it is not needed.
I didn't understand exactly how it works, but i guess it is something to do
with my OS 's default charset.
in addition , when the page receives a character other than the set
harset( big5 in my case), it automatically
adjust itself to unicode encoding, so no need to explicitly define the
unicode coding at the top of the jsp page.
if you do so, then whole thing becomes garbled.
Anyway Anthony thanks a lot for your help.
best regards :)
