contentType
Hi there.
I'm using tomcat 4.1.12 to serve kind of xml pages to an application.
I'm using jsp.
I use
<%@page contentType="text/xml"%>
to set the right content type for the client application.
The problem is that tomcat automatically sets the charset with
a default value of iso-8859-1. That's very sensible for a web
broser client, but my client gets very upset with it.. it simply
doesn't want to receive the charset header.
Can any kind soul help me out with a way to have tomcat not to
set the charset header?
Thanks and best regards.

Hi Robert,
=== copied from earlier response in this forum ===
Okay. In your index.jsp, insert the following page directive to the very
top...
<%@ page contentType="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1" %>
Let me know if the problem persists...
=== copied from earlier response in this forum ===
This seems to fix the header problem, doesn't it?

don't want tomcat to set 'charset' in jsp pages
Dear Johannes,
thanks for your replay.
But my problem is not that I want a different encoding.. My problem is
that I want tomcat -NOT set- the charset in the http header.
The client of this web application gets very upset when the http header
includes the charset in the ContentType header..
I need to find a way to tell
tomcat NOT set the charset.. and that should be specific to a web
application.. letting the other webapplication behave as usual.. the
ideal would be by using a directive in the .jsp page..
Roberto.

Hi Roberto,
1.) If you compile your JSPs during runtime, you can set javaEncoding in
/conf/web.xml to change the charset used (search for javaEncoding there).
2.) If you compile your JSPs using ant and Jspc, the default charset used
is UTF-8. If you want to change it, you have to change the Jspc.java file
or you can use the patch I created for it (
