Hi For the first problem, set the broswer encoding as Auto-Select and set the charset in HttpServletResponse content type(response.setContentType("text/html; charset=EUC-JP")). Also set the charset in HTML page ( <META http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=EUC-JP"> ).
For the second problem, Chk whether your database encoding matches with the page charset. -saravanan -----Original Message----- From: A mailing list for discussion about Sun Microsystem's Java Servlet API Technology.
