Encoding problem

Hi,

I'm having a problem that I believe it's related to encoding. When I enter question mark in a text box, it's converted to Å when I get the form data. Actually I can see Å value on the page before I reach doGet() in the servlet. This value is stored in db2 database so when I print the value in JSP, it's � (Capital A, with a ring on top) not ?. Also some special characters are stored as unicodes. For example Ccedil with an & for �. But this problem doesn't occur for every special character(on linux server) and most of them are working fine on Windows. As a result Linux and Windows behave differently

Could you give me some advise to solve the problem.

Thanks in advance....
 
I agree. Here's the link: http://ej-technologies/jprofiler - if it wasn't for jprofiler, we would need to run our stuff on 16 servers instead of 3.
