Hello all Tomcat users!
I'm new to Tomcat. Installed it yesterday and it seems to me running very
well.
Only one question is arised, which probably is answered already, but I did
not found answer for that from archive.
Currently in production we have JavaWebServer2.0 / Win NT, JDK1.3 and this
works very well for solving encoding problem with JSP:

// How to solve the character encoding problem with JSP
// ----------------------------------------------------
//
// 1. Comment out this line in generated file's _jspService method:
// JspWriter out = null;
// 2. Insert this line where you commented out number 1:
// PrintWriter out = response.getWriter();
// 3. Comment out this line in generated file's _jspService method:
// out = pageContext.getOut();
// 4. At the end of the _jspService method you find:
// } catch (Throwable t) {
// * if (out.getBufferSize() != 0)
// * out.clear();
// Lines marked with * shall be commented out.
//
// 5. After lines mentioned in point 4 you find:
// HandleErrorPageException("...errorpage.jsp", t, out);
// Change it to:
// HandleErrorPageException("...errorpage.jsp", t,
pageContext.getOut());

Actually there are some Lexicon files in Cp1251, Cp1257 and UTF-8 encodings,
which need to come through JSP to browser. With JavaWebServer2.0 this is ok,
if we do as described in steps 1.-5.
How to do it with Tomcat? I did the same but it seems to me no effect at
all. Only ???????? marks or unreadable characters. What is missing?
Thanks in advance for any kind of info/URL/help,
