How can i retain special characters in server side (java) after passing from client

[Malathi]

Hi,

while passing a string containing special characters from client side to server side, special characters are converted to some junk characters when we are getting to java file.

i have stored the string in a bean property, and i am getting the same property from bean in java. But it is coming with some junk where special characters are in place

please suggest

Try to use the following on serverside
URLDecoder decoder = new URLDecoder();
guiFileName = decoder.decode(request.getParameter("guiFileName") ,"UTF-8");
