Response character encoding

[Peter]

Hi
I want to set the character encoding of the HTTP response to UTF-8.
In local deploying with Eclipse everythig is OK with the JVM parameter
(-Dfile.encoding="UTF-8"), but when i deploying my application to App
Engine the character encoding goes wrong, and the ajax response String
displayed in my web page is not UTF-8. What can I do? Can I set the
given JVM option to my application somehow?

Thx Peter

You have to set the correct HTTP response header. In Python code

self.response.headers['Content-Type'] = "text/html; charset=utf-8"

Thx but i allready added
response.setContentType("text/html; charset=UTF-8");
response.setCharacterEncoding("UTF-8");
Local deploy is OK only deploying to app engine is wrong.

Sometimes I do the silly mistake of writing into outputStream instead of writer:

response.getOutputStream.print(myCharacterData); // obviously ignores charset

response.getWriter().print(myCharacterData);

Maybe...? :)

Hello, this is my first post to the group!
Thanks for help, I have corrected my polish language page coding
succesfully.

I have practised the above in the python code of a view class:

def get(self):

template_values =
{
}

path = os.path.join(os.path.dirname(__file__), 'some.html')
self.response.out.write(template.render(path,
template_values))
self.response.headers['Content-Type'] = "text/html;
charset=iso-8859-2"
--
You do not have to remove the header's Content-Type from the html
document
for proper editing purposes in a html editor, but the line
self.response.headers['Content-Type'] = "text/html;
charset=iso-8859-2"
has to be added after rendering of your pages to replace previous
encoding.

Thanks!
P.O.
