Can Not Display Normal Chinese Chars in JSP

Question

Hi,
I am displaying some chinese chars in a normal JSP file but it show me some
funny things. If I get the data from the oracle and the information is chinese,
then it display correctly. And I try another thing that I save the noraml JSP
(without any java code) to a html and it is working fine. Same content, if saved
as HTML, then ok. If saved as JSP, then got problem. I am using weblogic 6.1.
There are somewhere need to be configure or... Any idea for this? Thank you
very much!

Hi Howard,
if i use Font.createFont() to general font object that
can solve chinese display problem in RH 7.3. but i
thought, it's no reasonable way to use font object.
that is really bad for cross-platform benefit or you
need to carry font file with your application.
have a way to set default font use createFont()
object?In the past, I've carried the font file around with me. Given the number of graphics files, properties files and
other assorted garbage that apps are already carrying around, it's not too unreasonable to have to add a
TrueType font to the list of hangers-on (unless it's the size of Arial Unicode MS - 23Mb is a big ask sometimes)!
Given that TrueType fonts themselves are essentially platform-independent, I don't see it as too much of an issue. But that's just me and my experiences! ;-)
To set the font as default...
try {
    FileInputStream fis = new FileInputStream("myFont.ttf");
    Font defaultFont = Font.createFont(Font.TRUETYPE_FONT, fis);
    setFont(defaultFont);
} catch (FontFormatException ffe) {
    System.err.println("My TrueType font is corrupted.");
} catch (IOException ioe) {
    System.err.println("My I/O stuffed up.");
}There are various ways to set the font in even better ways, particularly if you're in a standalone app, but the above is at least a good basic one.
Hope that helps,
