Passing UTF-8 data to servlet through AJAX

[Mohamed Shehab]

I have an AJAX JavaScript function, I want to pass UTF-8 data to insert to Oracle database, the function is working perfectly for ASCII data, but while passing UTF-8 data, it is not working. This is my code snippet:

	function insertClob()
	{
		var contentType = "application/x-www-form-urlencoded;charset=utf-8";

		var body = document.getElementById('body').value;

		if(xmlhttp) { 		 		  
			 xmlhttp.open("POST","/Project1/CLobServlet?action=insert&body="+body ,true);
		    xmlhttp.onreadystatechange  = insertClobCallback;
		    xmlhttp.setRequestHeader('Content-Type', 'application/x-www-form-urlencoded');
		    xmlhttp.overrideMimeType('text/html; charset=UTF-8');
		    //xmlhttp.setRequestHeader('Content-Type', contentType)
		    xmlhttp.send(null);
		  }
	}

Can anyone advise me please ?
