search for Chinese words fix

[Migrated From Jforum.net]

So, the problem is that we cannot have the search as POST - well, we can, but then users won't be able to copy the search url and past somewhere else.

I tried searching for russian text with the current code and it worked. It's very hard to deal with all these cirilyc cyrillic.

Hi,
I find a way to search back Chinese words in posts by changing /templates/default/search.htm 's form method from get to post.

Also, you have to check if you have correct code in ActionServletRequest.java

		if (isMultipart == false) {
			superRequest.setCharacterEncoding(encoding);
			String containerEncoding = SystemGlobals.getValue(ConfigKeys.DEFAULT_CONTAINER_ENCODING);
			
			for (Enumeration e = superRequest.getParameterNames(); e.hasMoreElements(); ) {
				String name = (String)e.nextElement();
				//this.query.put(name, new String(superRequest.getParameter(name).getBytes(containerEncoding), encoding));
				this.query.put(name, superRequest.getParameter(name));
			}
		}

you can try it on version 2.1.5.
