Okey guys!
I have problems with Tomcat 4.1.x (27)
I am using struts 1.1 tiles and Co. to make my app. The first and pretty
big problem is with encoding.
I have one of tiles which reads menu names from property file which
contains texts with special chars. They are correct
and that's prooved.
Now what happens!
When the file is rendered I get "?" instead of special chars even if I
have set <[EMAIL PROTECTED] pageEncoding="windows-1257"%>
That DOES NOT happen if I switch to Tomcat 4.0.6 which displays the
characters correctly with the same (unchanged) JSP pages.
So I assume that soemthing has broken between 4.0.6 and 4.1.27! I have no
knowledge and experience to find the differences!
Also the question about dynamic change of the encoding.
Regarding JSP spec you can set encoding directly into response in case if
response is not commited and "fresh"!
If I do the very first line
<%response.setContentType("text/html;charset=windows-1257");%> then I get
"?" in both servers
4.0.6 and 4.1.27 but looking into JSP page code I see that only difference
in setting encoding into response is that in case
of <@page> the response.setContnetType is called before optaining
pageContext, out, session etc... so where is
that small catch?
And I know that "encoding" is on BIG problem in Tomcat :(
Tomcat 4.1.27 has this "?" sign problem even if you specify <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
directive in main page and then included and "struts-tiled" files are
corrupted.
