Java Forum / General / April 2007Posting unicode characters from a form
I have an application running on iplanet app server 6.5/web server 6.0. The application server exclusively handles servlets and JSPS. I created a test form that posts one field to the server. I then created a JSP that gets the value of the field posted to display on the screen. Both files set the encoding to UTF-8. reuqest.getParameter returns a string that appears to be partially utf-8 encoded and partially ISO-8895-1 encoded. I have to transoform the string with String correctValue= new String(name.getBytes("ISO-8859-1"), "utf-8"); in order to display the Japanese characters I set the UTF-8 enconding the web server web-apps.xml. This has no impact on the application server. Is there a similar confiuration for the app server or is ISO encoding built in to the web connector? If possible I would like ot avoid adding the above transformation to all servlets and JSPS that call request.getParameter Thanks, David > reuqest.getParameter returns a string that appears to be partially > utf-8 encoded and partially ISO-8895-1 encoded. One string with mixed encoding? One usualy suspect might be the browser: Which one do you use, and is there a way to intercept the communication between browser and server? Perhaps the browser sends utf-8 data but declares it as being iso-8859-1. Just speculation.

When I run the same JSP off the web server. The encoding is purely utf-8. It is only when I run the JSP off the application server that I see mixed encoding. The documentation for versions 7.X of the application server refers to a hidden form variable that identifies the encoding of form data. This leads me to believe that the mixed encoding may be built in to the GX plug-in, which transfers information between the web server and the application server.
