| | | problem with arabic in multilanguage jsp | problem with arabic in multilanguage jsp 2004-01-14 - By Thomas.Rimmele@(protected)
Back
Hello
we are running a tomcat instance that uses common jsps for all languages. If
no encoding is set in the http-header tomcat 4.1.29 sets iso-8859 (See http://iso-8859.ora-code.com)-1 by
default. Arabic users must then configure their browsers themselves
(unacceptable).
(1)
If I set the encoding in the jsp like this:
<%@(protected) contentType="text/html;charset=windows-1256 (See http://ows-1256.ora-code.com)"%>
everything is fine. But as I told, our jsps are multilingual.
(2)
If I set the encoding in the jsp like this:
<%
response.setContentType("text/html;charset=windows-1256 (See http://ows-1256.ora-code.com)");
%>
the results are just question marks. The same thing happens if the arabic
text is not hardcoded in the jsp but comes from a varable.
The generated java code for the jsps is :
(1)
.....
_jspxFactory = JspFactory.getDefaultFactory();
/////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
// set encoding
/////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
response.setContentType("text/html;charset=windows-1256 (See http://ows-1256.ora-code.com)");
pageContext = _jspxFactory.getPageContext(this, request, response,
null, true, 8192, true);
application = pageContext.getServletContext();
config = pageContext.getServletConfig();
session = pageContext.getSession();
out = pageContext.getOut();
_jspx_out = out;
out.write("\r\nhallا�"أ�^�"�? - ا�"صفحة ا�"عرب�Sة -
س�^�Sس إ�?ف�^: أخبار �^�...ع�"�^�...ات ع�? س�^�Sسراooo");
...
(2)
....
_jspxFactory = JspFactory.getDefaultFactory();
/////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
// set encoding
/////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
response.setContentType("text/html;charset=ISO-8859 (See http://ISO-8859.ora-code.com)-1");
//(***)
pageContext = _jspxFactory.getPageContext(this, request, response,
null, true, 8192, true);
application = pageContext.getServletContext();
config = pageContext.getServletConfig();
session = pageContext.getSession();
out = pageContext.getOut();
_jspx_out = out;
/////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
// set encoding
/////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
response.setContentType("text/html;charset=windows-1256 (See http://ows-1256.ora-code.com)");
out.write("\r\nhall�?á�fæáì - �?á�*ÝÍ�? �?á�s�'�^í�? -
�"æí�" �...äÝæ: �fÎ�^�?�' æã�sáæã�?�S �sä �"æí�"�'�?ooo");
....
So my problems are:
-Tomcat (from 4.1.29) sets a default encoding in the http-header.
Can I tell tomcat not to set a default encoding without setting one myself?
-If I set an encoding myself (in a servlet or in a jsp) the results are
questionmarks. I think the reason is (***).
Can anybody tell me how to display arabic without putting <%@(protected)
contentType="text/html;charset=windows-1256 (See http://ows-1256.ora-code.com)"%> on the top of every jsp page?
Thanks Thomas
