Send the URL with the å character URL encoded as %C3%A5. That is the
UTF-8 URL encoding.

Hello,
We're building a webapplication that uses Solr for searching and I've
come upon a problem that I can't seem to get my head around.
We have a servlet that accepts input via XML-RPC and based on that input
constructs the correct URL to perform a search with the Solr-servlet.
I know that the call to Solr (the URL) from our servlet looks like this
(which is what it should look like):
http://myserver:8080/solrproducts/select/?q=all_SV:ljusblå+status:online&fl=id%2Cartno%2Ctitle_SV%2CtitleSort_SV%2Cdescription_SV%2C&sort=titleSort_SV+asc,id+asc&start=0&q.op=AND&rows=25
But Solr reports the input-fields (the GET-variables in the URL) as:
INFO: /select/
fl=id,artno,title_SV,titleSort_SV,description_SV,&sort=titleSort_SV+asc,id+asc&start=0&q=all_SV:ljusblå+status:online&q.op=AND&rows=25
which is all fine except where it says "ljusblå". Apparently Solr is
interpreting the UTF-8 string "ljusblå" as ISO-8859-1 and thus creates
this garbage that makes the search return 0 when it should in reality
return 3 hits.
All other searches that don't use special characters work 100% fine.
I'm new to Solr so I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong here. Can anybody
help me out and point me in the direction of a solution?
Sincerely,
Daniel Löfquist
