/**
  * <p>Example filter that sets the character encoding to be used in 
parsing the
  * incoming request, either unconditionally or only if the client did not
  * specify a character encoding.  Configuration of this filter is based on
  * the following initialization parameters:</p>
  * <ul>
  * <li><strong>encoding</strong> - The character encoding to be configured
  *     for this request, either conditionally or unconditionally based on
  *     the <code>ignore</code> initialization parameter.  This parameter
  *     is required, so there is no default.</li>
  * <li><strong>ignore</strong> - If set to "true", any character encoding
  *     specified by the client is ignored, and the value returned by the
  *     <code>selectEncoding()</code> method is set.  If set to "false,
  *     <code>selectEncoding()</code> is called <strong>only</strong> if the
  *     client has not already specified an encoding.  By default, this
  *     parameter is set to "true".</li>
  * </ul>
  *
  * <p>Although this filter can be used unchanged, it is also easy to
  * subclass it and make the <code>selectEncoding()</code> method more
  * intelligent about what encoding to choose, based on characteristics of
  * the incoming request (such as the values of the 
<code>Accept-Language</code>
  * and <code>User-Agent</code> headers, or a value stashed in the current
  * user's session.</p>

Then declare the filter in your web.xml file; setting filter to use 
"UTF-8" and mapping the filter to all URLs.

     <filter-class>
         filters.SetCharacterEncodingFilter
