I don´t know if I didn´t made myself clear but first of all the encoding used isn´t ASCII and there´s a .properties file for Spanish in the myfaces-example-simple-1.1.5-SNAPSHOT named: example_messages_es.properties where there´s a localized Spanish text for each label. I think that the problem is either related with some configuration that is missing in the faces-config that comes with the demo files, related to the locales supported or it can also be related to some tomcat config variable, I already restarted tomcat placing the following line at Catalina.bat: set CATALINA_OPTS=-Dfile.encoding=UTF-8, but the problem persists. I found a recommendation at: http://wiki.apache.org/tomcat/Tomcat/UTF-8 but I think that there would be no reason to add a filter, and it should work fine with the encoding being set in each page and in the container but unfortunately problems continue... Again, any ideas?

Have a look at the following link. You'll need to replace these characters with the relevant codes. Outputting text with certain JSF tags will do this for you http://www.ascii.cl/htmlcodes.htm Jorge Vásquez wrote: > > Hi, > > Alter deploying the myfaces examples to tomcat 5.0.28, I am getting > strange characters for spanish tildes. > > For instance, instead of país I get: Pa�s.
