Bad Codeset Demo
Click here to see this page the right way.
This page demonstrates what happens when you do NOT use a page encoding directive or set the content type. In this case, the page is all Latin-1 and the non-ASCII characters become question marks because the Latin-1 encoding doesn't contain the characters.
Compare the JSP header on this file:
<%@page contentType="text/html"%>
<%@page import="java.util.*"%>
<%@page import="java.text.*"%>
<html>
<head><title>Bad Codeset Demo</title>
<LINK href="demo.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css">
</head>
With the header on correct page:
<%@page contentType="text/html;charset=UTF-8"%>
<%@page pageEncoding="UTF-8"%>
<%@page import="java.util.*"%>
<%@page import="java.text.*"%>
<html>
<head>
<META http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html;charset=UTF-8">
Locales Installed on This Server
This list was created using the Locale.getAvailableLocales() method in Java. The corruption of the names (the question marks) is due to the page being encoded as Latin-1 (ISO 8859-1), the default encoding for JSP.
