Hello, I red some similar problems reported, but I'd like to post my question to the tomcat user community.
I have an existing static documents (something.html) which has to be seen in Cyrillic (Windows-1251). An appropriate meta tag is included to tell the browser to use the right charset: <meta http-equiv="Content-type" content=text/html; charset=windoes-1251"> Seems the new html connector (coyote 1.1) that comes with tomcat 4.1.29 strictly follows the standard and returns HTTP Header Content-type: text/html ; charset=ISO-8859-1 "if no character encoding has been specified". The browser is forced to show the Cyrillic in ISO-8859-1. I suppose any other non latin languages have the same problem. JSP pages works fine if <%@ page contentType= "text/html; charset=Windows-1251" is specified. The same problem appears with filters (like sitemesh for example), as far as the content comes from a static .html it's not shown properly even with <%@ page contentType directive specified. Does anyone found out a solution of this problem or are there any plans tomcat to support "static non latin content".
