Displaying a XSLT result in a JTextArea Using the Proper Encoding

Question

Hi!
I'm trying to output the result of my xslt into a JTextArea however I can't seem to output it in its proper encoding.
I have this code to transform my xml:
Source source = new StreamSource(xmlFilePath);
source.setSystemId(new File(xmlFilePath).toURL().toExternalForm());
StreamResult result = new StreamResult(System.out);
transformer.transform(source, result);
And I'm using this to redirect System.out to the JTextArea:
textAreaPrintStream = new TextAreaPrintStream(OutputTextArea, System.out);
System.setOut(textAreaPrintStream);
With TextAreaPrintStream as:
package ati.xslt.transformer.gui;
import java.io.*;
import javax.swing.*;
public class TextAreaPrintStream extends PrintStream {
private JTextArea textArea;
private final static String newline = "\n";
public TextAreaPrintStream(JTextArea area, OutputStream out){
super(out);
textArea = area;
public void println(String string) {
textArea.append(string + newline);
textArea.setCaretPosition(textArea.getText().length());
public void print(String string) {
textArea.append(string);
textArea.setCaretPosition(textArea.getText().length());
public void write(byte[] buf, int off, int len) {
super.write(buf, off, len);
textArea.append(new String(buf, off, len));
textArea.setCaretPosition(textArea.getText().length());
public void write(byte[] b) throws IOException {
super.write(b);
textArea.append(new String(b));
textArea.setCaretPosition(textArea.getText().length());
If I set result as file and not the System.out, my output xml is correct.
Can someone help me with this?

you can use AJAX for this.. google maps is using ajax for rendering their maps..
