resource bundle character set problem
hello list,
i am building a webapp that has to support greek characters.
i chose to encode my templates using utf-8, hence i set:
<property name="org.apache.tapestry.template-encoding" value="utf-8"/>
in my .application file.
greek characters that occur in the actual template a displayed correctly
in the browser. however internationalized messages pulled out of
properties files are displayed as gibberish. from what i understand in
3.0.1 properties files are read using the same encoding as the one
specified for html templates so I don't see where the problem could be -
both are utf-8. any help on resolving this problem would be extremely
appreciated.
on a related issue, i have a table component that displays rows of greek
text pulled out of a mysql database. the text shows up correctly in the
browser but in the actual html source i can see that it has been
transformed to html entities. this is not a problem per se but i don't
see why it should happen anyways.
thanks for your help,
giorgos

It should happen to prevent page html from corruption by textual data in
your DB, lets say there is something like this "a<b" - that will
confuse browser a lot

Andreas & Konstantin,
Thanks for your help, it worked great.
Do you by any chance have any ideas regarding my second question (below)
as well?

Giorgos, (for greek) just add the next line to your build.xml
<native2ascii encoding="Cp1253" src="${web.src.dir}"
dest="${web.build.dir}" includes="*.properties"/>

No, Tapestry does not use the same encoding for
reading property files( that was my wrong assumption
too), but uses standard Java mechanic. That means you
need to use native2ascii program in java or similarly
names Ant task to convert your property files from
UTF8 or whatever to that hardcoded charset. See
javadocs for Properties for more information
