Problem with � sign

Hello Ranchers,

I am very new to struts.

In my application i have a form that has a textfield and the input from the textfield is set to a String object in my form class.

It all works fine, except that when i submit a � sign the � sign is changed to �� which is very strange.

It doesnt seem to do this with any other character just a � character that then changes to ��.

Does anyone know why this happens?

I am using tomcat 5.

Happy days peeps,

Em
