Upload unicode file and display content in a textarea

Question

Hi all,
I am trying to do the following;
1. upload a unicode file (file with some non-english characters)
2. after uploading, read the uploaded file and show the content in a textarea in a jsp page.
I use struts in my project. I use class org.apache.struts.upload.FormFile for uploading the file. The upload works fine. I do the upload with help of FormFile's getInputStream method. When i read and display the content in the textarea, the content is displayed junk. But i tried to open the uploaded file, its fine. I mean it is just as my source file. Please help me out for reading the uploaded unicode and displayed in a textarea.
Below is the code that i use to upload the file;
File tempFile = null;
FileOutputStream fos = null;
InputStream is = null;
try {
     tempFile = "c:/ThaiText.txt";
     fos = new FileOutputStream(tempFile);
     is = theFile.getInputStream();
     // Transfer bytes from in to out
     byte[] buf = new byte[1024];
     int len;
     while ((len = is.read(buf)) > 0) {
          fos.write(buf, 0, len);
     logger.info("fileName$$=" + tempFile.getName());
} catch (Exception e) {
        logger.error(e);
     throw e;
} finally {
     closeOutputStream(fos);
}Below is the code that i use for reading the uploaded file's content and store it to a string. I set this string to a form bean's string property.
public static String readContentNonUTF8(String path) {
     FileInputStream fis = null;
     String value = "";
     try {
          fis = new FileInputStream(path);
          byte[] buf = new byte[1024];
          int len;
          while ((len = fis.read(buf)) > 0) {
               String tmp = new String(buf, 0, len);
               value = value.concat(new String(tmp.getBytes()));
     } catch (Exception e) {
          logger.error(e);
     } finally {
          try {
               fis.close();
          } catch (Exception e) {
     return value;
}

Hi,
Thanks for your reply. You meant that both method also can used to upload file and submit data? How about if i want to use the first method to upload file and submit data? How can i upload the file by using first method?
