I think Tapestry uses a LocalizedProperties class to load properties files so you don't need to use native2ascii doesn't it? It does in T4 at least. I even saw that GWT is using the same class with a special thanks to Tapestry for providing it. :)

Just a suggestion, without having tested it... The Java implementation of Property is not able to read UTF-8 encoded characters in the .properties file because it uses Latin1 as its (only) encoding. See http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.5.0/docs/api/java/util/Properties.html and its recommendation to use the native2ascii utility to convert the UTF8 characters. BTW In Java 5, they implemented property files using XML, which use UTF8 as their default encoding. Maybe an xml property file would work for you (don't forget the encoding in the header :) ) Perhaps you could try running native2ascii on your properties, or convert them to xml? HTH, Nick.

I am using Tapestry 5.0.4 and trying to display cyrillic unicode characters within a simple template (Login.html): <t:form t:id="form" xmlns:t="http://tapestry.apache.org/schema/tapestry_5_0_0.xsd";> <t:label t:for="username"/>: <t:textField t:id="username" t:value="prop:username"/> <t:submit t:value="message:submit-label"/> </t:form> Here are contents of my Login_ru.properties: username-label=Юзернэйм submit-label=Сабмит In result i have scrambled cyrillic text: <label for="username" id="username:label">Ð(r)зеÑнÑйм</label>: <input id="username" name="username" type="text" value=""><img alt="[Error]" class="t-error-icon t-invisible" id="username:icon" src="/app/assets/tapestry/field-error-marker.png"> <input id="submit" name="submit" type="submit" value="СабмиÑ"><img alt="[Error]" class="t-error-icon t-invisible" id="submit:icon" src="/app/assets/tapestry/field-error-marker.png"></form> I've injected 'Messages' in Login component class and tried to resolve localized value from ther but result was the same. My properties file is in UTF-8, Also I have performed steps from the "How to use UTF-8 encoding in T5" ( http://wiki.apache.org/tapestry/Utf8EncodingInT5 ). Browser determines encoding correctly. I've set encoding to UTF-8 in every place and still no success. Please, tell me am I am missing something? Regards, Alexey.
