Hi, I will provide a little more information, may be that will be important.
1. I use an in-house developed Tiles, similar to Struts, so each page is make up of of dinamically included pages, for example, header, content and footer JSPs.
2. I use only i18n from JSTL package, so web.xml have a single declaration for that JSTL library as below
<taglib> <taglib-uri>fmt</taglib-uri>
<taglib-location>/WEB-INF/tld/fmt-1_0-rt.tld</taglib-location> </taglib>
3. A "wrapper" Tile page declares <%@ page language="java" contentType="text/html; charset=UTF-8" %>
4. A "template" Tile page declares <META HTTP-EQUIV="content-type" CONTENT="text/html; charset=UTF-8" />
5. Each "included" JSP page has these lines
<%@ taglib uri='fmt' prefix='fmt' %> <jsp:useBean id="locale" scope="session" class="java.util.Locale" /> <fmt:setLocale value="<%= locale %>" /> <fmt:bundle basename="bundle"> <TABLE> <fmt:message key="header" /> <FORM ACTION="anAction" METHOD=GET> ... <-- here are all JSP/HTML tags </FORM> </TABLE> </fmt:bundle>
JSP may also use <fmt:> to format numbers and currencies. Please ask if you need more information.
You can visit http://www.javadesk.com and see that all pages are UTF-8 encoded.
A characterEncodingFilter sets encoding
request.setCharacterEncoding("UTF-8"); response.setContentType("text/html; charset=UTF-8");
Now, if I submit the above web page, all UTF-8 encoded
data became gibberish. If I replace
<FORM ACTION="anAction" METHOD=GET> with <FORM ACTION="anAction" METHOD=POST>
everything works fine. What is wrong ?
Tomcat 5 doesn't use the encoding you set with setCharacterEncoding() for query string parameters, only for parameters in a POST body:
