Hi Andre, Thanks for hint. I have read your solutions on other threads. I will implement your solution of filters in my project.

It will not hurt, but it has nothing to do with the handling of requests and responses. The "encoding" attribute of the <xml> tag in the various Tomcat configuration files, just specifies to the module that parses these configuration files, in which character set this configuration file is written. And since encoding="UTF-8" is the default for XML files, what you did above basically changes nothing at all. Now, to answer your real question about UTF-8 request/response handling : that is really a very wide question that you are asking, and you should probably take this a little bit at a time. The good news is that Tomcat and Java basically default to Unicode/UTF-8, so unless you do things really wrong, it should not be a big problem to support UTF-8 requests and responses. The following previous messages in this forum entitled "UTF-8 handling differs between two servlets within the same application", will already provide you with some good pointers.
