    <p>I'm using Google App Engine to fetch some data. Before sending the data from GAE, I set the content type to "text/html" and the character encoding to "UTF-8". I'm certain that the characters åöä are stored correctly on the server database.</p> <p>When getting the data from my android app, everything works fine. The characters åäö are represented correctly. Here's the strange part: when getting the same data from my java app on windows, åäö gets replaced by "Ã¥" and other strange symbols. When getting the same data from my java app on a mac, åäö gets replaced by some other strange characters.</p> <p>So my question is: Why does the android app read the string correctly while the java app doesn't?</p> <p>EDIT:</p> <p>Here's how I send the string from GAE: </p> <pre><code>resp.setContentType("text/html"); resp.setCharacterEncoding("UTF-8"); resp.getWriter().println(myString); </code></pre> <p>Here's how I read it in java both on android and windows:</p> <pre><code>String response = ""; try { URL url = new URL("http://mydomain.com/blabla"); URLConnection conn = url.openConnection(); conn.setDoOutput(true); OutputStreamWriter wr = new OutputStreamWriter(conn.getOutputStream()); wr.write(data); wr.flush(); BufferedReader rd = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(conn.getInputStream())); String line; while ((line = rd.readLine()) != null) { response += line; } wr.close(); rd.close(); } catch (Exception e) { e.printStackTrace(); } System.out.println("Response is: " + response); </code></pre>

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
