Farsi in JSP

  Asked By: Daisy    Date: Jan 18    Category: Java    Views: 1435
  

I've a problem and if u please help me.
My system configuration is :
Windows 2000 Professional
Allaire Jrun 3
Sun JDK 1.3.1
Microsoft Access 2000

this is my code:


<%@page contentType="text/html; charset=Cp1256" language="java" import="java.sql.*"%>
<%
Driver driverUser = (Driver)Class.forName("sun.jdbc.odbc.JdbcOdbcDriver").newInstance();
Connection connConnection = DriverManager.getConnection("jdbc:odbc:MSAccessDB","","");
String stmSQL = "SELECT FirstName FROM Header";
PreparedStatement pstmStatementUser = connConnection.prepareStatement(stmSQL);
ResultSet rsResultSet = pstmStatementUser.executeQuery();
%>
<html>
<body>
<%
String varTestFarsi = new String(rsResultSet.getString("FirstName").getBytes(),"Cp1256");
%>
<table>
<tr>
<td><%= varTestFarsi %></td>
</tr>
</table>
</body>
</html>

When I run this page, I just see some Question Marks (?) insteas of the correct characters(the field filled with persian characters).I test this page with utf-8 and wimdows-1256 but nothing happens.
I change Sun JDK to IBM JDK and JRun to Tomcat 4, and test my page again, but still there are question marks.
The Default encoding of installed JVM is Cp1252, I change it to utf-8 and windows-1256, nothing happens....


I don't know what's my problem, please HELP...

I assume that you are sure that cp1256 is capable of displaying all
needed characters.
Then I would suggest to check the following:
FARSI-CP1256 COMPATIBILITY:
Depends on what version of Windows you are on. Farsi is not officially
supported in all code points for cp1256 ;( (check UNICODE website as
well as some websites specialized on Farsi)

CONTENT TYPE SETTINGS:
Make sure you have all this three lines in your JSP page (in the same
order, where the META tag has to be within the HTML <HEAD> section):
<% response.setContentType("text/html; charset=cp1256"); %>
<%@ page content="text/html;charset=cp1256"%>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=cp1256">

DB CODE PAGE SETTING:
What is the content page setting of your DB? CP1256?? UTF8? Win1256?
I would assume that the problem  is how MSAccess handles Farsi.
