Re: UTF-8 vs ISO-8859-1 and really screwed up webpages.

Do you have an XML prolog? Even if you save your file using URF-8 you have to add the @page on the line *after* the XML prolog (if any), like:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<%@ page contentType = "text/html;charset=UTF-8">

I am having this problem aswell.

the pages I produce are coming up with all sorts of Japanese characters

etc.

in them.
I have already inserted the Meta tags and converted the files using the
saveAs / UTF8 feature on my editor.

Now I am going to add the <%@ page contentType = "text/html;charset=UTF-8"
%>
tag suggested by Bogdan below, is there anything else I must do?

In the JSP page, use a page directive to set the content type:
<%@ page contentType = "text/html;charset=UTF-8" %>

Yes, you are storing the page as ISO-8859-1 so you must serve the page
as
ISO-8859-1
changing the meta tag to UTF-8 doesn't magically convert the page to
UTF-8.

If you want to serve the page as UTF-8 you must also save the page as
UTF-8.
The meta tag is just a hint to the browser which charset the page is
using.

Check you html editor to see if you can change the encoding to UTF-8
when
saving.

I have two webpages and both contain the letter é (litterally written

into

the page), but one page displays it as é and the other page displays

it
as

?C and I cannot figure out why.  I have tried setting (via META Tags)

the

language to UTF-8 and to ISO-8859-1 and I can only get one page to

work
at a

time (under UTF-8, the é comes up as a block on the page that did work

under

ISO-8859-1).  I can see no difference in the code.

Does anyone have any ideas about what is going on??
