Set the correct character encoding.

Hi Bauke Scholtz,


thanks for your reply

<jsp:directive.page contentType="text/html;charset=utf-8" />

I already have this in my JSF page so do you think is this different issue?


thanks

The character encoding has to be the same thoroughout the application, in every layer.

[jeff rusty]

Yes it is same across the layers.. i could see the Chinese on my JSF page but not on the chart. Is it because of the SVG ?

thanks

[jeff rusty]

anyone?

I am using Trinidad's Chart component . which internally uses the SVG viewer to embbed the report in a PDF and makes it available for viewing.

thanks

[Bauke Scholtz]

Maybe. I don't know SVG further.

Point is, the character encoding has to be correct and the same thoroughout the complete process. Connecting, reading, writing, displaying, storing, etcetera.

i have done everything correctly.. i also found that the chart doesnt work only in IE but works on firefox :s

I don't know SVG so I can't be of any means for you here.
(Re)read a basic SVG book/tutorial or try a forum/mailinglist devoted to SVG.
