Hello, I suppose I found the problem with Tomcat. I have already write about it into tomcat-user mailting list but I did not get feedback.
I have a problem under following environment: - Windows XP SP2 - JDK 1.4.2_04 - Tomcat 5.5.9 - Struts 1.2.4 I use characterEncodingFilter to setup UTF-8 encoding into request before using the content of the request. When I submit form with POST method it works well. I use FORM based authentication. However if I perform the following steps I have the problems with encoding: 1. Open JSP with HTML form which submit some UTF-8 string data using POST method. 2. Waiting when the HTTP session is invalidated (session timeout). 3. Submit the form. 4. Because session is invalidated I need to re-authenticate myself. 5. After success authentication The processing of the original request is continued. 6. The data of the form (from first step) is saved in incorrect encoding. I suppose that Valve (FormAuthenticator) which responsible for authentication is processed earlier then characterEncodingFilter and the parameters from POST request are parsed using DEFAULT_CHARACTER_ENCODING="ISO-8859-1" when the original request information is saved into session. I have tried to specify enctype="application/x-www-form-urlencoded; charset=utf-8" attribute for my FORM tag. But e.g. Mozilla browser specify only Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded header and cut out specified charset. Any ideas? -- Best regards.
