title: i18n : Umlaut not being displayed correctly in JSP
body: <p>I have a JSP that is supposed to display some German text from some .properties files by using fmt:message, e.g.</p>
  
  <p></p>
  
  <p>The corresponding entry in the .properties file is:
  service.test.hware.test = Hardware prüfen
  (umlaut between r and f in 2nd word).  </p>
  
  <p>On internet explorer this displays as:</p>
  
  <p>Hardware prÃ¼fen</p>
  
  <p>the umlaut being corrupted.  Any ideas as to what is going on here?  Note that we are using Spring MVC.</p>
