Resource bundle display incorrectly utf-8 characters in Placeholder of form:input tag

Question

In my project, I'm using Resorce bundle to display multi language, everything is ok except it's couldn't display values in placeholder:

<label>
    <spring:message code="home.address"/>
</label>
<spring:message code="home.street" var="bdstreet"/>
<form:input id="txtstreet" class="form-control" path="address.street" placeholder="${bdstreet}" />
<form:errors path="address.street" cssClass="error" />

English display is ok, but VietNamese is incorrect. My config:

<beans:bean id="messageSource" class="org.springframework.context.support.ResourceBundleMessageSource">
    <beans:property name="basenames">
        <beans:list>
            <beans:value>language/home</beans:value>
        </beans:list>
    </beans:property>
</beans:bean>
<mvc:interceptors>
    <mvc:interceptor>
        <mvc:mapping path="/**" />
        <beans:bean id="localeChangeInterceptor"
            class="org.springframework.web.servlet.i18n.LocaleChangeInterceptor">
            <beans:property name="paramName" value="lang" />
        </beans:bean>
    </mvc:interceptor>
</mvc:interceptors>

<beans:bean id="localeResolver"
    class="org.springframework.web.servlet.i18n.CookieLocaleResolver">
    <beans:property name="cookieName" value="lang" />
    <beans:property name="defaultLocale" value="vn_VN" />
</beans:bean>

Can you provide sample from your message resource? It seems you store strings in encoded state. — Ken Bekov, Mar 07 '16 at 04:26

Try to add defaultEncoding property in ResourceBundleMessageSource declaration:

<beans:bean id="messageSource" class="org.springframework.context.support.ResourceBundleMessageSource">
    <beans:property name="basenames">
        <beans:list>
            <beans:value>language/home</beans:value>
        </beans:list>
    </beans:property>
    <beans:property name="defaultEncoding" value="UTF-8"/>
</beans:bean>

Also, check that you file stored in utf-8 encoding.

About placeholders. It seems, that you store strings in encoded state. This means that when you'll show it in html, browser will automatically decode strings. But when you'll show it in placeholders, browser will do nothing, and will show them as is. Solution, don't encode stings in your resource. Just type strings with common letters. Example:

simple.string=Qu&#7889;c Gia  // now you store in this format

simple.string=Quốc Gia  // you should store in this format

@Ducthien I've updated answer regarding placeholders – Ken Bekov Mar 07 '16 at 04:36
I tried it but when I display wrong format, it's auto change to English – Ducthien Mar 07 '16 at 04:41
I used encodings is: NCR Decimal to store strings. It has proplem in placeholder – Ducthien Mar 07 '16 at 05:28
oh, my mean is if I store with this format: " simple.string=Quốc Gia // you should store in this format" It will auto change to English language when display in website. I don't know why – Ducthien Mar 07 '16 at 05:31

yeah, I found my problem.

I have just changed BunderResource plugin to format my properties file. And it's working now.

(I used unikey with "NCR Decimal" before, and it display incorrect in placeholder's position)

I recreated properties file with BunderResource plugin:

That plugin will reformat for me. result is: @Ken Bekov, thank for you help :) I use it in this: Java properties UTF-8 encoding in Eclipse
