Unicode Problem in Struts using dom4j for xml parsing

[Ranveer K Kumar]

Hi All,

I am facing problem related to UTF-8.
I am using dom4j for generating xml in struts 1.3.

My xml document carry some non English character (Hindi).
Now the problem is when I am generating xml using dom4j in core java. Then Hindi character is coming.
But when using with struts then becoming junk (like : ???).
The problem I am unable to understand.
my environment is following:
OS : windows 7
IDE : Eclipse
java version : 1.6
Struts version : 1.3

I am using servlet filter to encode the request to UTF-8.

    
                Document doc = DocumentHelper.createDocument();//DocumentFactory.getInstance().createDocument();
		Element root = doc.addElement("junction_content");
		Element topBlog = root.addElement("topblog");
		Element story_header = topBlog.addElement("story_header");
			            	story_header.addAttribute("rea", "प्रतिक्रियाएं");
		
		story_header.addText(fcForm.getTb_story_header());
		System.out.println(fcForm.getTb_story_header());
		              System.out.println("प्रतिक्रियाएं");
		try {
			XMLWriter output = new XMLWriter(new FileWriter(new File("d:/jjun.xml")));
			output.write(doc);
			output.close();
		} catch (IOException e) {
			System.out.println(e.getMessage());
			System.out.println(e);
		}
		

Same code is working while using in core java (using main method).
please help.
