Thanks for your reply... My answer & questions below

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,
<Ilan> Sorry I realy dint understand what you mean by proving locale to
character encoding.
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
<Ilan> My understanding is character encoding and Local are independent. In
my case Locale is already set to Japanese ( which is set from user browser
request) and in jsp page i forcefully set response character encoding to UTF-8,
but still why <fmt:bundle> tag should change this to 'Shift_JIS'.
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 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
/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
--
charsetMapperClass="com.peoplesarchive.tomcat.UTF8CharsetMapper"
path="" docBase="ROOT" debug="0" reloadable="true" />
hope this helps
<Ilan> If I use japanese I should be either use 'Shift_JIS' or 'UTF-8' or any
other japanese character encoding. Incase of French I should be either able to
use 'ISO-8859-1' or UTF-8' I should not able to lock particular local to
particular character encoding. My understanding is now this class locks
particular charactter encoding to particular locale. This is my understanding
applogize me if i am not correct.
More over i find one work to avoid <fmt:bundle> changing character encoding
to 'Shift_JIS'. After setting response character encoding thru <%Page > call
'response.getWriter().flush();', this ensures response character encoding is
always set to UTF-8.
