A really low guess would be that the web container does not handle the url 
encoding but it still manages to work some places because of some browser 
encoding.

 

We also saw the problem you had, if user pressed the back button of the 
browser(IE6 only). Later we discovered that IE 6 does not cache the page 
encoding (or caches the wrong one) and defaults to os codepage when back are 
pressed.  Fixing this was done by setting server encoding to the same as the 
locale we expect the users to have (danish), a real crappy solution but it 
works.

Subject: [Wicket-user] AutoCompleteTextField and special characters -solution

 

Hi

I just wanted to share a little trick with you guys who might also be 
struggling with this.

I have deployed an application on my linux box. Danish characters (æøå) works 
fine, no problem.

Then we add AutoCompleteTextField to make search more nice on one page. And 
here comes the problem. 

The autocomplete will not work with æøå, but if I used %F8 instead og ø, it 
worked.

After some hair-pulling I found  (thanx to woogle.billen.dk)

http://cwiki.apache.org/WW/how-to-support-utf-8-uriencoding-with-tomcat.html

which did the job.

If somebody can explain why it do work, please do..because æøå works in all 
other input fields.


Regards
Flemming
