Hi,
I ran up against this problem in my application. After some digging I
boiled it down to the fact that the servlet spec / tomcat versions I
was using didn't allow me to provide a Locale to character encoding
mapping, and when the fmt tags do pretty much anything, they end up
setting the Locale, which in turn sets the character encoding. I think
I read somewhere that some version of the servlet spec allows you to
specify Locale to character encoding mappings in the web.xml file, but
for what I'm using (2.3 on tomcat 4.1) what I had to do was create a
custom CharSetMapper and specify it on the <context> tag in my
server.xml.
My charset mapper ignores whatever locale you ask for a mapping for and
returns UTF-8 as the charset every the time. It seemed extreme, but
it's what I wanted. I compiled this and put it in
<tomcat_home>/server/classes/
UTF8CharSetMapper
--
package com.peoplesarchive.tomcat;
import java.util.Locale;
import org.apache.catalina.util.CharsetMapper;
public class UTF8CharsetMapper extends CharsetMapper {
public UTF8CharsetMapper() {
super();
}
public UTF8CharsetMapper(String name) {
super(name);
}
public String getCharset(Locale locale) {
return "utf-8";
}
}
server.xml fragment
--
<Context
charsetMapperClass="com.peoplesarchive.tomcat.UTF8CharsetMapper"
path="" docBase="ROOT" debug="0" reloadable="true" />
hope this helps

Hello,
I have problem while displaying of japanese UTF-8 character.
I set response header character encoding to UTF-8 by <%@ page
contentType="text/html; charset=UTF-8" pageEncoding="UTF-8" %> then I
read the UTF-8 japanese character by following statement
<fmt:bundle basename="com.xxx.myBundle">
<fmt:message key="k1"/>
</fmt:bundle>
Even though i set response character encoding to UTF-8 but when
compiler start executing <fmt:bundle> it automatically chages response
character encoding to 'Shift_JIS' from 'UTF-8' I can notice this by
printing response character encoding before and after <fmt:bundle>.
Due to this form is not displayed properly. I dont have issue with
locale, I have only issue with response character encoding.
Resource bundle contains UTF-8 character
I have followig jsp
<%@ page contentType="text/html; charset=UTF-8"
pageEncoding="UTF-8" %>
<%@ taglib uri="fmt" prefix="fmt" %>
<html>
<head>
</head>
<%System.out.println("CharacterEncoding before calling fmt =
"+response.getCharacterEncoding() );%>
<fmt:bundle basename="com.xxx.myBundle">
<%System.out.println("CharacterEncoding after calling fmt =
"+response.getCharacterEncoding() );%>
<fmt:message key="k1"/>
</fmt:bundle>
</html>
You can see result o/p to
CharacterEncoding before calling fmt = UTF-8
CharacterEncoding after calling fmt = Shift_JIS
Cheers
