RE: JDBC and Unicode problem

Which parameter? Servlet or applet don't have to know anything about encoding.

But if you want to pass parameter from servlet/applet to driver, connection
properties would be a good place. Interbase use such approach. Interbase
example:

properties.put("user", "SYSDBA");
properties.put("password", "masterkey");
properties.put("charSet", "UTF8");
DriverManager.getConnection("jdbc:interbase://192.168.0.200/root/AIR.GDB",
properties);
