hi Giannis
i had the same problem
no matter what i did, didn't help.
at last the ParameterParser.class (which is bundled with oreilly package and
can be downloaded from www.servlets.com) solved my problem.
First try the straightforward method as below:
String yourparameter=req.getPrameter("parametername");
yourparameter=new String(yourparameter.getBytes("ISO-8859-1", "ISO-8859-7");
if it doesn't help, use the ParameterParser.class to solve your problem.
hope it helps
a guy from your neighbour country (Turkey) :)
