Correct display of characters in the Browser - Pls Help - Urgent

96472May 21 2002
Hi,

We have a java application running on solaris 8 connected to oracle 8.1.6 database. The database characterset has been changed to WE8ISO8859P15 to support Western European Characters and the Euro symbol.
The problem we are facing is, when the euro symbol (Alt + 0128) is entered thru the HTML form and then retrieved from the database and again displayed on the HTML form, it shows as inverted question mark or some other character.

If any one can tell us exactly the steps to follow overcome this problem, it would be of great help. What settings have to be changed in the webserver, database and the client side so that there is proper data conversion.

Immediate response is apprecited.

Thanks
