CRM-ISA: Character encoding

[former_member203544]

Hi,

In my action class, the request parameter "characterEncoding" is set to "ISO-8859-1".

Where did this value come from and how can I change this value?

Hi Roman,

The ISO-8859-1 is default encoding for ASCII characters. In case you want to display some PDF or Word data, character encoding has to be for byte data.

Hi,

thank you for your attention.

When data is PDF, there is no problem.

I display HTML data in "Windows-1251" charset, for this, I set up the content type to

"text/html; charset=windows-1251". When an application runs, I see correct symbols, but when I view the source code of HTML, there is "ISO-8859-1" charset.

When I save HTML and open it again, symbols became incorrect.

To correct this error, I need to save HTML code in "Windows-1251" charset, then everything is OK.

I would like to skip these steps and get correct charset at first running.

Regards,

Roman

Hi Roman,

Please modify class file corresponding to <isa:contentType> to set the correct encoding.

Create a new class file similiar to

com.sapmarkets.isa.core.taglib.ContentTypeTag and modify your isa.tld to include this class file for contentType tag.

Hi Vivek,

It's helpful suggestion.

But I need something else, because I make HTML code in CRM automatically (by FM "LVC_ALV_CONVERT_TO_HTML") and output it in the action class using BufferedOutputStream.

I certainly can do the output in JSP and insert modified <isa:contentType> before it, as you recommended, and may be it helps, but I would like to find a solution without creating JSP.

Have you any another suggestions?
