Hi,
before you gain the parameters in a servlet you should set their
encoding (by default they are latin1).
The best way is to use a filter like this:
public class ArabicEncodingFilter implements Filter {
public void init(FilterConfig filterConfig) throws ServletException {
}
public void doFilter(ServletRequest request, ServletResponse response, FilterChain
chain) throws IOException
<http://www.google.com/search?q=allinurl%3AIOException+java.sun.com&bntl=1>,
ServletException {
if (request.getCharacterEncoding() == null) {
request.setCharacterEncoding("windows-1256");
}
chain.doFilter(request, response);
}
public void destroy() {
}
}
And configure it in web.xml, too.
I hope this could help.

ps: Be aware of the console encoding. I don't know, could be problem
with the encoding in it, too. Just try to output the string in new html
page.
pps: Maybe you could try this too <%@ page language="java"
contentType="text/html; charset=windows-1256" pageEncoding="windows-1256"%>
