Hi,

When you save Unicode Tamil text from a JSP, in order to save it correctly, you need to take care of the following things:

1) In JSP, make sure you set the content type to UTF-8 in the

section:

2) In database, make sure the db,table,column is having unicode_utf8 collation.
3) If you are writing to a text file, make sure you save it with UTF-8 encoding

hi,
1. I used UTF-8 encoding in my jsp page
<% pageEncoding="UTF-8"%>
and also in head section

2.In my postgresql database ,I created database with SQL-ASCII encoding which supports other languages.
3.I tried to write file with UTF-8 encoding
BufferedWriter bw=new BufferedWriter(new OutputStreamWriter(new FileOutputStream(title+".txt"),"UTF8"));

I am using Linux as a server machine.

Thanks in advance.

Hi,

Try using encode and decode function to encode and decode between UTF-8 and SQL-ASCII (postgresql has Encoding class in org.postgresql.core package which deals with it.

I will explore more and give you the details if I get any clue for the UTF8 text file writing (may be it should also be fine if you use encode decode functions)
