Charset Problem?
Hi,
does anyone know this problem. Having an HTML form the user may type
words like 'Köln' (ö -> special german character). In one case the
server receives the parameter 'Köln', in the other case it receives only
'K'.
On the other hand the server has no problem to build + send HTML pages
that contain words like 'Köln'.
The Browser is always the same (i.e. Opera 5.0, IE 4.0).
The application is the same.
Could it be a charset problem? But I think by default, a server parses
parameters using the common Latin-1 (ISO 8859-1) charset. That works for
Western European languages.
Works::
Configuration: Tomcat 3.2.1, MS-SQL 7, NT 4, runing in intranet
Doesn't work:
Configuration: Tomcat 3.2.1 as in-process addon with IIS 4, MS-SQL 7, NT
4, runing in internet
Greetings,
Andreas

If it is clear that is a Tomcat bug is it also a known bug? I tried to have
a look on the bug database. But I was confused about the huge amount of
options.
I hope some Tomcat developer is reading this bug thread :-)

yep, i posted about this problem some days ago, with no reply.
obviously a bug in the connector, which (by mistake) expects
a Unicode-Charset.
