java - French and Chinese characters are not appearing correctly

Question

I have internationalization support in my App. The issue is in displaying the literals on UI. e.g I have a Chinese literal in my code as 不安全密码！ However on browser , the field is shown as ?????¨?ˉ????

similarly in french langauge, a literal "Très faible" gets displayed as "Tr???s faible"

Appreciate your help..Thanks

What you see is the bytes rendered as ISO-8859-1 or similar.

Try setting charset in content-type response.setContentType("text/html; charset=utf-8");, include appropriate meta-tag

 <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" />

What are you using to generate that page?
