Hi, I have a big trouble with using different encoding than US-ASCII in my JSP.
What encoding should I use, if I want to make pages for european users? I think the best is to use UTF-8, since it includes all character sets. I tried to do this: <%@page contentType="text/html; charset=UTF-8" %> I am developing my JSP in NetBeans, so I set the source text encoding also to UTF-8. In compiler options, I set the compiler encoding also to UTF-8. I have no trouble with viewing the JSP page in the browser, the sorce text is ok. But some of the dynamicaly generated output is wrong. E. g. I am reading XML file in my JSP page and printing its contents to the page. Although the XML is in UTF-8, the page contains wrong characters. Similar output problems are with JDBC fetched data. I read some textual cntent from MySQL database, but printing them to the JSP causes the same problem, as with XML: national characters are substituted with question marks (?) or squares. I am using NetBeans 3.2 as IDE, Tomcat 3.2 as JSP server and Windows 2000 SP-2 as OS. Did you encounter any problem like this? Thanks for any help.
