There it goes. I have a form that has an input field named "query". I type "piraña" an submit the form using the GET method. I can see the browser has encoded this parameter into the URI as query=pira%C3%B1a I set a breakpoint into the filter so when the request hits the filter I can see getCharacterEncoding() returns null. The filters sets it to "UTF-8". Then the request gets to the controller where I can see the request parameter "query" is set to "piraña". The controller tries to perform a text search using that query but, obviously, it doesn't return any results. I can manually modify it while debugging and set it to "piraña", so the controller returns several results. BTW. I'm running Tomcat 6.0.13 on Sun JDK 1.6.0_06
