I don´t think it worth the effort but you can encode the string in base64 and it will work for sure!!

I use a form to provide a search function. When I do not use any special character in this form everything is fine. As soon as I enter e.g. "Rö" the corresponding form value is set to "Rö" If an umlaut appears in the search result it is display correctly. So, the problem seems to occur only in the request. I've search through the mailing list archive and implemented an "Encoding Filter" as described here: http://www.javaworld.com/javaworld/jw-05-2004/jw-0524-i18n_p.html. I've tried to use UTF-8 as well as ISO-8859-1 but nothing helped. Does anybody have any hints?
