filter: How to set browser encoding?

2005-10-12 Thread Mark
Hi everybody,
I've got a request from my client to force an encoding in the
browser, regardless what user have set.

When I set encoding inside my filter to Windows-1257 in the HTML
source code I see only ?s:??? ? ???.

Is there any easy way to enforce browser to set proper encoding?


May be I need to setContent type after I obtain a writer in the
servlet?
Note, all outputs are generated by servlets:

public void doPost( HttpServletRequest req, HttpServletResponse resp
)
  throws IOException, ServletException
{
  // do something
resp.setContentType(text/html);
resp.getWriter().println(output);
}


In MyFilter.doFilter() I do following:
(HttpServletResponse)response).setContentType(text/html;charset=Windows-1257)

I use 5.0.28 with Redhat 9.
Any input is welcome.

Thanks!
Mark.

Mark, have a look here:

http://javawebparts.sourceforge.net/javadocs/javawebparts/filter/CharacterEncodingFilter.html

Just added that to JWP last weekend :)  It essentially calls
request.setCharacterEncoding() with whatever you configure.

(Oops... ignore the description of the encodingScheme parameter... just
realized I have a cut-and-paste error in the javadoc.  D'oh!).
