Question
I have a problem with the values inserted in all my <h:inputText>
fields. Some characters are not encoded in the right way. E.g. if I put ciò
in the input field I get ciò
.
How can I allow a user to insert text with those characters and save them correctly? The problem in not in the DB encoding since I already have the wrong value before inserting it in the DB.
I'm using JSF 2 with Facelets and GlassFish as application server.
Solution
You need to tell Glassfish to use UTF-8 to decode paramters instead of (default) ISO 8859-1. Add the following entry to the <glassfish-web-app>
of your /WEB-INF/glassfish-web.xml
file:
<parameter-encoding default-charset="UTF-8" />
