[opencms-dev] Problems with special characters

[Gonzalez, Arnau (GE Consumer Finance, consultant)]

Hello,

Passing a text as a parameter from a jsp to another jsp, the special characters change.
For example, this line (text.jsp just return the text):

<h1>http://localhost:8080/text.jsp?text=¡hello!</h1>

shows this: ¡hello!

I've found that if I use the hex value instead of the char it works, but the problem is that this texts is introduced by the user and is not any practical to obly the user to know the hex codes.

How can I solve it?
