Hi,



I try to convert a string from a html page which I know is a ISO-8859-1 16 bit string into a UTF-8 string, but I fail. You can see the code below. I haven't used the package java.nio.charset, so I propably do some stupid things. pString is my ISO* string.



Regards,

			pString = ...
			

			Charset tCharset = Charset.forName("ISO-8859-1");
			

			CharsetDecoder tDecoder = tCharset.newDecoder();
			

			

			ByteBuffer tBuff = ByteBuffer.allocate(pString.length()*2);
			

			

			for (int i = 0; i
			< pString.length(); i++){
			

			tBuff.putChar(pString.charAt(i));
			

			}
			

			

			try {
			

			

			CharBuffer tCbuf = tDecoder.decode(tBuff);
			

			String s = tCbuf.toString();
			

			

			tCharset = Charset.forName("UTF-8");
			

			CharsetEncoder tEncoder = tCharset.newEncoder();
			

			

			ByteBuffer tBbuf = tEncoder.encode(tCbuf);
			

			String tResult = new String(tBbuf.array());
			

			return tNewStr; // Returns empty string ""
			

			

			} catch (Throwable e) {
			

			System.out.println(e);
			

			return null;
			

			}
