The following page has been changed by DouglasBirdzell:
http://wiki.apache.org/tomcat/FAQ/CharacterEncoding

------------------------------------------------------------------------------
   1. Change all your JSPs to set the correct `Content-Type` (use `<%@page cotnentType="mime/type; charset=UTF-8" %>`)
   1. Change all your servlets to set the content type for responses to UTF-8
   1. Change any content-generation libraries you use (Velocity, Freemarker, etc.) to use UTF-8 as the content type
+  1. Disable any valves or filters that may read request parameters before your character encoding filter or jsp page has a chance to set the encoding to UTF-8.  For more information see http://www.mail-archive.com/users@tomcat.apache.org/msg21117.html.
