[opencms-dev] Request character encoding - An answer with a n ew Q

Fri May 28 02:43:01 CEST 2004

Replying to my q I used the following : 

<%@ page language="java" contentType="text/html; charset=ISO-8859-7"
pageEncoding="ISO-8859-7" %>
<%@ page import="java.util.*"%>
<%
out.println( "<BODY BGCOLOR=\"#FDF5E6\">\n" +
                "<H1 ALIGN=CENTER>" + ""+ "</H1>\n" +
                "<B>Request Method: </B>" +
                request.getMethod() + "<BR>\n" +
                "<B>Request URI: </B>" +
                request.getRequestURI() + "<BR>\n" +
                "<B>Request Protocol: </B>" +
                request.getProtocol() + "<BR><BR>\n" +
                "<TABLE BORDER=1 ALIGN=CENTER>\n" +
                "<TR BGCOLOR=\"#FFAD00\">\n" +
                "<TH>Header Name<TH>Header Value");
    Enumeration headerNames = request.getHeaderNames();
    while(headerNames.hasMoreElements()) {
      String headerName = (String)headerNames.nextElement();
      out.println("<TR><TD>" + headerName);
      out.println("    <TD>" + request.getHeader(headerName));
    }
    out.println("</TABLE>\n</BODY></HTML>");
out.println(response.getCharacterEncoding());
out.println(request.getCharacterEncoding());
  String pagetitle = new
String(request.getParameter("pagetitle").getBytes("Cp1252"),"ISO-8859-7");
out.println(pagetitle );
%>

having config tomcat/opencms to ISO-8859-7.

My operating system (winxp) uses "Cp1252" that's why it is working like
this. But my question is how can I know what encoding the client uses. I
cannot see being able to retrieve this from request headers. Any ideas
please?

Please correct me if I am wrong request encoding is depends on tomcat
encoding (??).

Thnx,
Vangelis

Hi alll,
Could you please let me know which is the default opencms request character
encoding and if this is configurable?

Thnx,
Vangelis
