as far as i see this is a common problem
yesterday there was a discussion about this issue.
as a summary , you can use ParameterParser.class to retreive request
parameters correctly instead of using the simple method.
namely :
param= req.getParameter("myParam");
param=new String( param.getBytes(), charset ) ; (in your case charset is
UTF-8 )
sometimes this simple method doesn't work .
then use ParameterParser.class (written by Jason Hunter )
My impression is that tomcat has a problem with retreiving parameters from
different charsets. I must be a bug.
cheers : )
