[Standard] Currency symbol is displayed incorrectly in standard-examples

Hi,

When I opened "formatNumber.jsp" in standard-examples on a browser with Japanese locale ( = ja-JP ) ,
undefined character '?' was displayed as currency symbol.
As the reason, this jsp finally responses "text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1" as content-type,
that is, the response encoding is "ISO-8859-1",
Japanese currency symbol '\uffe5' ( = Fullwidth Japanese Yen Sign ) is not  responsed correctly to the browser.

So, if notes about a display of undefined character are added  in "formatNumber.jsp" source-code,
it is very kind to users.

For example:
<p>
Note: Depending on browser locale, your browser may display undefined character as a currency sumbol.
</p>

My runtime environment:
 Windows2000 Pro + IE5.5/NC4.75 ( Japanese Edition , altogether )
 JDK 1.3.1_02 ( all languages )
 Tomcat 4.0.4 Beta3
