RE: How to display chinese chars in JSP / encoding UTF-8 without @page encoding tag
Thank you for your answers. After some tests, i have upgraded my Tomcat server from 4.x to 5.5, and i have done the same thing with my web application from servlet 2.3 to servlet 2.4. Now i can use the xml element jsp-config and jsp-property-group url-pattern*.jsp/url-pattern page-encodingUTF-8/page-encoding /jsp-property-group It works fine, and i don't have to define in each jsp the encoding. For the question of which UTF has to be used : 8 or 16, i 'm using UTF-8 because the size of the page. With UTF-16, the jsp pages are twice heavier than with UTF-8.

With UTF8 you have to escape all the characters, right? I was on a project for a Japanese site once and we used UTF16. It was a lot easier to work with. Eclipse will show it to you just like normal text(Chinese). All you have to do is set the encoding to be UTF16 in the files properties. You still need the %@ page contentType=text/html; charset=UTF-16% line, but it is a lot easier to read and maintain.

UTF16 will always use 2-byte characters even when it's not necessary. For instance, all of your HTML markup will be 2-byte characters, increasing the data size by a factor of 2.

I think you can set the -DFileEncoding flag or something to be UTF-8 in the java options of the script you use to start tomcat.

It's -Dfile.encoding=UTF-8 (or UTF8; either is acceptable). But, AFAICT, this will not change the charset the JSP's output is created in. Even with -Dfile.encoding=UTF-8 JSPs in standard syntax will produce an ISO-8859-1 encoded response if not explicitly told to do otherwise. One means to tell them otherwise is by using the pageEncoding attribute of the page directive - which is what the OP wanted to get rid of. Another possibility is using the page-encoding configuration element. JSPs in XML syntax will by default create an UTF-8 encoded response.

I want to set this information in only one place(why not in the web.xml), to avoid to add the directive tag on my each jsp file. Let me know if you have any ideas on the subject. Two ideas com to my mind: 1. Change the JSPs to use XML syntax. For those, the default encoding is UTF-8. 2. Add something like jsp-config jsp-property-group url-pattern*.jsp/url-pattern page-encodingUTF-8/page-encoding /jsp-property-group /jsp-config to the web.xml of your application. The snippet above is written from memory. So it may not be correct but should give you the idea what to look for.
