Charsets used and how to change



I am in Canada and writing jsp pages for a Russian client, with Russian characters. I can display the characters with a simple html page from my desktop. We are using Apache web server 2. 2.3 and if I have it server me the page it displays correctly.



I use UTF-8 encoding everywhere.



The problem is using jsp, I guess going through Tomcat, to generate the page, it changes the encoding and the characters do not show up correctly.



I have included the following at the top of all my jsp files:






<%@ page contentType="text/html; charset=UTF-8" %>





I am using Tomcat 5.5




So how can I have Tomcat keep the encoding.



Thanks,



Pat
