Shalom Yigal, all your efforts are useless. Just do the following thing and you'll be happy: open up the server.xml search for the Connector node which works for HTTP and add the attribute URIEncoding=UTF-8 restart tomcat and go on using: String string = request.getParamter(name); that's it. Works perfectly here.

Re: Tomcat 6.0.14 and UTF-8 POST form problem
Thanks for the reply Chuck, I read in the documentation that the default encoding in Tomcat for incoming requests like from a form submission is Latin-1 (ISO-8859-1). So the text in nameTextField (which is of type TextField) is UTF-8 text that was 'treated' like Latin-1. What I did is as suggested here: http://www.jguru.com/faq/view.jsp?EID=1030399 to take the value (getValue() which returns an Object) and cast into String, then take the bytes as Latin-1 and construct a new String to return it to UTF-8. Please correct me if I'm wrong. I've changed the code a bit and it looks like this: String nameText = (String)nameTextField.getText(); String convText = new String(ntft.getBytes(ISO-8859-1), UTF-8); String subj = קורות חיים של +convText; message.setSubject(subj, utf-8); getText() returns an Object so it has to be casted to String. Still doesn't work. Any suggestions are welcome..
