Hi,
I use JBOSS-4.0.2.
My application is struts based.
When my action class receives form parameters, the request is not able to handle unicode characters.
The unicode characters are getting displayed as some junk characters.
I searched weba and everywhere it is written that "request.setCharacterEncoding("UTF-8")" should solve the problem. But strangely it's not working.
I tried even with Tomcat5.0. Here is the JSP file I wrote to test unicode characters.
JSP:
<%@page contentType="text/html;charset=utf-8" pageEncoding="utf-8" import="java.io.*" %>
<%
String enc = request.getCharacterEncoding();
if (enc == null)
{
request.setCharacterEncoding("UTF-8");
}
String characters = request.getParameter("str");
out.println(characters);
%>
Even the above code is not able to handle unicode characters with tomcat 5.0.
If I set URLENCODING attribute of CONNECTOR element in server.xml , then tomcat is able to handle encoding properly.
But when I set URLENCODING attribute of JBOSS_TOMCAT's SERVER.XML, it is not able to handle unicode characters. I mean, when I pass unicode character from form, and if I read using "request.getParameter(
"str") " it gives me junk characters in place of unicode character.
Effectively, there is no way that I can get unicode characters from request in my JBOSS application.
Please hlep me how I can solve this problem.,
