Nay, still problems. A lot of ?'s in the visual output. Himpf. The point is, which is interesting, if a have an html form with ISO-8859-9 encoded chars, and post it to a jsp file, and write the parameters to a system text file, the text is correct!!

The problem seems to occur during displaying strings obtained from inside a class .. Any other display problems with other character sets ?? .. Any more idea ?? ..

Let's remember the problem. We cannot display ISO-8859-9 encoded string constants of a class, or strings read from a file, in jsp documents in correct encoding.
Usage of <%@ page content-type does not solve
Usage of javac -encoding does not solve
Usage of encodings in file read/writes of java.io routines does not solve

The problem is with Tomcat, no problems with Resin used in the same environment, OS/JDK.
