I didn't find anything obvious in that section. It says: "A JSP page uses a character encoding. The encoding can be described explicitly using the pageEncoding attribute of the page directive. The character encoding defaults to the encoding indicated in the contentType attribute of the page directive if it is given, or to ISO-8859-1 otherwise." Which is more or less what T P already had got down in the question. So it seems there were something else going on, unless I miss something. Is Tomcat 3, 4 and 5 very different in the settings that need to be done? I still use 3 and 4. Some links list searchers may appreciate: The JSP 1.1, 1.2 (the one I needed myself) and 2.0 specifications are downloadable (after reg) from Sun here: <http://java.sun.com/products/jsp/reference/api/index.html> (Scroll down to the specs) and JSP documentation is here: <http://java.sun.com/products/jsp/docs.html> While not JSP specific, I've found this useful link page of Java Internationalization oriented writings as well: "i18ngurus.com, the open internationalization resources directory" -> / Programming/Java <http://www.i18ngurus.com/docs/984813264.html> and O'Reilly released the book "Java Internationalization" in 2001 <http://www.javainternationalization.com/blog/> --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
