localization with multiple charsets

Hi,

I'm developing a multi-lingual database driven web application with struts.
I've selected the Unicode character set (UNICODE_FSS) for my database
(Firebird), java manages strings in Unicode.
I've read the excellent chapter on Internationalization and Struts but some
questions remain concerning the view components.
For the Hebrew language there are several charsets available:
UTF-8 (unfortunately not all browser versions accept this charset)
Hebrew Windows
Hebrew ISO Visual
Hebrew ISO Logical
Etc.
Suppose I store my Hebrew resource text with the charset ISO-8859-8 and
I set all my content type for users with locale "he" to "text/html;
charset=ISO-8859-8".
What happens when the user changes his browser charset parameter to another
Hebrew charset and sends text input back to the server?
Any advice for planning my internationalization with Struts is welcome!

Your help will be appreciated.
Fred
