Charset

Detect the Charset of a URL

 Problem:

You want to know what character set a web page is encoded in.

Solution:

The Java programmer can use icu4j's CharsetDetector class to create a best guess for the charset of a specified input stream.  Unfortunately this is very much a guess, and should not be overly relied upon.

 

To get the Charset of web page:

  • Charset
  • icu4j
  • Add new comment
  • Read more

If you are testing any of these recipes in Eclipse and the characters are not displaying correctly in your console visit http://i18ncookbook.com/eclipse_settings.
