R: [opencms-dev] strange encoding (bug =?koi8-r?Q?=3F=20?=) openCMS alpha3

[Andrey Darbinyan]

Thanks for the reply, Stefano!

The content-encoding property is always set to UTF-8 in my project (it is a default value). So this does not help, unfortunately. 

The conversion technique you suggested should work, in fact i used a similar method and it worked. But this is just a lesser of two evils, not a real solution, because then offline version (that worked fine before) gets corrupted. I really think this is a problem/bug that needs to be investigated by opencms developers. 

PS. yes, i tried request.setCharacterEncoding("UTF-8") too, did not work

Best regards,
Andrey
