encoding problems with Tapestry-2.x

[Tchepannou Hervé <He...@tech-nter.com>]

When Im entering caracters with accent (french character like é, ç etc) in tapestry form @Input component,
when the form get rewinded, those character are replaced in the @Input component by strange character.
I suspect that its bc tapestry uses UTF-8 for encoding.
Is there a place where I can change the default Tapestry encoding?
thanx

I had the same problem a while and mindbridge told me to check out the 
following link:

The problem is basically that in Tapestry 2.x in BasePage:

 public IMarkupWriter getResponseWriter(OutputStream out)
    {
        return new HTMLWriter(out);
    }

and the constructor of HTMLWriter:
 public HTMLWriter(OutputStream outputStream)
    {
        this("text/html; charset=utf-8", outputStream);
    }



Override getResponseWriter in your page : (charset is hardcoded here, should be your systems locale)

public IMarkupWriter getResponseWriter(OutputStream out) {
	return new HTMLWriter("text/html; charset=iso-8859-1",out); 
}

Greetings,

Rob
