parameters encoding & struts

[Malcolm]

Hi all,

When I create a simple web-application that gets data collected on page
a.jsp and prints it on page b.jsp I specify on the top of each page in
contentType parameter charset of koi8-r (neccessary for russian
support). Then I fill in the form on page a.jsp with russian symbols and
submit it. Now I have to specify request.setCharacterEncoding("koi8-r")
before calling the first getParameter(...) method. And I've got several
questions about it:
1. Is it possible to set default charset to koi8-r rather than
iso-8859-1 for the whole web-application?
2. Where can I insert request.setCharacterEncoding("koi8-r") when using
Struts so that it's done before Struts starts processing parameters from
the form (because it decodes them using default encoding)?
3. Does Struts have any means to handle the problem of getting the
values from the form in right codepage in other way than I do?

I would appriciate your help!

Best regards, Yevgen Malafeyev AKA Malcolm.

Help's not neccessary any more. I handle this problem by using Filter to
the action servlet.
