Has anyone any idea how to get character entities which are delivered to a Java Bean from a database converted or rendered to its normal characters in a JSP layer?
E.g.. I have a database which is delivering "&","'" etc. instead of the characters "&", "'" etc. in my JSP presentation layer. I have set <%@ page contentType="text/html;charset=UTF-8" language="java"%> in my JSPs but to no-avail. I am getting an output such as : "...you use UNIX, you probably use csh to type commands even if you've never heard of it. It's the standard shell (command line) on most UNIX systems..." instead of : "....you use UNIX, you probably use csh to type commands even if you've never heard of it. It's the standard shell (command line) on most UNIX systems...." Thanks. Bob
