Hungarian character set not supported in forms

           Summary: Hungarian character set not supported in forms
           Product: Tomcat 5
           Version: 5.0.19
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Windows NT/2K
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Critical
          Priority: Other
         Component: Unknown
        AssignedTo: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
        ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED]


The latest versions of Tomcat fail to support Hungarian characters in forms.
When an input field is filled with a word that has characters "ő" or "ű", the
server deletes the character after submitting a form (both when GET or POST is
used) - In other words, these characters will not show up on the response page. 
Setting ContentType and CharacterEncoding as below:
<%
  response.setContentType("text/html; charset=ISO-8859-2");
  request.setCharacterEncoding("ISO-8859-2");
%>
works fine with Tomcat 4.1.12 but not with later versions of Tomcat. I've
checked and experienced the same problem with Tomcat 4.2.24, 4.2.29, 5.0.19
running on Linux.

Having checked numerous developer forums on the problem, I came to realize that
the only solution found thus far by the developer community is to use Tomcat 4.1.12.
Thanks.
