Hi All, I need one help from you. I have published a Web Service. There is one method in web service which accepts a String as input parameter. The value of this String should be an xml Template which is <?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?> <emailDetails xmlns="http://xyz.net/abc/namespace" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:schemaLocation="http://xyz.net/abc/namespace C:\java\aaa\xml\emailXMLSchema.xsd"> <subject>Subj in Greece: Νέες ευκαιρίες απασχόλησης</subject> <type>Subj in Greece: Νέες ευκαιρίες απασχόλησης</type> <url><![CDATAhttp://localhost:8080/AppName/activate_new_account.jsp?key=KEY_HOLE]></url> <bodyText> <![CDATA[<html><body><p> Νέες ευκαιρίες απασχόλησης: Ιατρικοί Επισκέπτες Αθήνα/Θεσσαλονίκη/Ιωάννινα /Ηράκλειο Κρήτης/Καβάλα/Τρίκαλα/Σέρρες </body></html>]]> </bodyText> <from>aseem.bathla1@gmail.com</from> </emailDetails> My webservice accepts this content in the form of String Object. It will parse this template(String object) using SAX parser and finds the following attribute Subject,Body,From,Recipient and constructs and sends out the mail to the recipient which is working fine with English language. I have some Greece clients also. When i edited the body part in Greek language. Instead of sending those Greek characters some question marks are coming to that mail. I extracted the code out which parses that XML Template and sends out the mail. I created one java project using that code. Parser parsed that template and sent the mail successfully with the Greek characters. I suspect that Axis or Soap engine is not supporting Greece Characters.. I tried with encoding="ISO-8859-7" and UTF-8 both but it din't work. Could any one help me in solving this problem? Thanks, Aseem Bathla
