Dear Wiki user, You have subscribed to a wiki page or wiki category on "Tomcat Wiki" for change notification.
The following page has been changed by markt: http://wiki.apache.org/tomcat/HowTo The comment on the change is: Move this content to new encoding FAQ. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ }}} - == How to set the encoding used to interpret POST requests? == - POST requests should specify the encoding of the parameters and values they send. Since many clients fail to set an explicit encoding, the defaults are used - ISO 8859-1. In many cases this is not the preferred interpretation so one should employ a javax.servlet.Filter to set request encodings. Writing such a filter is trivial. Furthermore Tomcat already comes with such an example filter. Please take a look at: - 4.x:: {{{webapps/examples/WEB-INF/classes/filters/SetCharacterEncodingFilter.java}}} - 5.x:: {{{webapps/servlets-examples/WEB-INF/classes/filters/SetCharacterEncodingFilter.java - webapps/jsp-examples/WEB-INF/classes/filters/SetCharacterEncodingFilter.java}}} - 6.x:: {{{webapps/examples/WEB-INF/classes/filters/SetCharacterEncodingFilter.java}}} - - The interpretation of paramers in GET requests is determined by the URIEncoding parameter to the Connector element in server.xml configuration file. - --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
