Description

When using i18n there is a problem with the single quote character '

It actually gets ignored, when using a key in a property file (ISO-8895-1):

submitAlert=S'abonner

will display as Sabonner

It does not help to encode ' as unicode escape sequence \u0027. It still will get ignored. To work around I have to use \u2019 which is not the same charcter: ’

I hope this can be resolved.

Intersting: when using the Eclipse plugin RessourceBundleEditor, single quotes will not even get escaped to unicode. So I assume the single quote is a valid ISO-8859-1 caracter, which actually would not need to be escaped at all..

PS: I use

acceptcharset="utf-8" in forms

in the JSPs <%@ page language="java" contentType="text/html; charset=UTF-8" pageEncoding="UTF-8"%> and <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8">.

Tomcat 7 is running with URIEncoding="UTF-8"

MySQL is used with pooled connections (c3p0) by connection with: jdbcUrl="jdbc:mysql://127.0.0.1/mydatabase?useUnicode=true&characterEncoding=UTF-8...
