Localization and still wrong chars from input fields

[Anders Vesterberg <an...@vesdakon.se>]

Hello
I am working on an example that is fairly similar to
 editBook in the vlib application. I have a page with a
 list of ToDoItems. You can click on one of them and edit
 in a detail page. In my Engine I have put localization. As
 far as I understand this is all I need to do.

public BorderEngine(){
	super();
	java.util.Locale svLocale = new
 java.util.Locale("sv","SE");
	setLocale(svLocale);
	}

Html is displayed correctly, but when I enter swedish
 characters into input fields they are translated wrong
 when they are put into the attributes in the java class.

'view source' in detail page shows (correctly):
    fika på maxi
and if I just submit text without changing it, in the list
 I find with 'view source':
    fika på maxi
The small a with ring is translated to big A with tilde and
 the yen symbol?

...
    <component id="beskrivning" type="ValidField">
        <static-binding
 name="displayName">Beskrivning</static-binding>
        <binding name="validator"
 expression='beans.stringValidator'/>
        <binding name="value"
 expression='attributes.beskrivning'/>
    </component>
...

I am using Tapestry 2.3 on jdk 1.4.1_01 and Jetty 4.2.9.
Thanks for your help!

Hi,

Once we had similar problem, which we found out to be
UTF-8/LATIN1 conflict when client browser tries to
detect automatically the used charset. Our solution was
to override getResponseWriter() method on Page base class
in following manner:

  // only way to get latin1 pages ???
  public IMarkupWriter getResponseWriter(OutputStream out) {
    HTMLWriter writer =
      new HTMLWriter("text/html; charset=iso-8859-1",out);
    return writer;
  }

I won't guarrantee that this solves your problem, but
it's fairly easy to try, if you have common base class for
your pages.
