David,

could you please be a bit more specific?

Just now I have a very similar problem as LuKe.
I am using MySQl 4.1.10 and all tables are UTF-8.
Struts is configured to use UTF 8 (i. e. the controller element in
struts-config.xml says
contentType="text/html;charset=UTF-8").

This seems to work. My browsers (Firefox and IE6) decode the pages as UTF-8.


BUT: when I enter text using a form (this is configured using the
charSet-attribute to html:form to accept
ISO-8859-1) IE6 garbles it while Firefox seems to work OK.

Any hints?

Martin
