XSLProcessor European language support

Question

My code in JSP (with JDev) looks like this:
<jsp:useBean id="XSLTProcesseur" class="oracle.jbo.html.databeans.XmlData" scope="request">
<%
String sImageBase = (String)session.getValue("ImageBase");
XSLTProcesseur.initialize(application, session , request, response, out, "bilanmetastatique_BilanModule.MasterBilanMetView");
XSLTProcesseur.setReleaseApplicationResources(true);
XSLTProcesseur.setStylesheet(sImageBase + "/BilanMeMasterJSP.xsl");
XSLTProcesseur.render();
%>
</jsp:useBean>
In the xsl file, BilanMeMasterJSP.xsl, I use French characters and got error messages (exceptions) out of XMLData class. But it easy to overcome this problem by adding the following command:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding='ISO8859-1'?>
<xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform">
<xsl:output indent="yes" method="xml" encoding='ISO8859-1'/>
So that way the XSL file can include accent without generating any error message. But I still have a problem since accent in my database is not affected by this command. So I need a way to output data from my XMLData class in encoding='ISO8859-1' otherwise I got the following error message:
"Error Message: Invalid UTF8 encoding."
from the XSLT processor...
Any help appreciated, thanks.

Does your stylesheet use:
<xsl:output encoding="xxx"/>
to specify a proper encoding for the
characters you're trying to use?
