jsp encoding does not display character correctly

Question

Trying to display the following letter š (which is Lithuanian and which is under UTF-8 support according to http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E17904_01/bi.1111/b32121/pbr_nls003.htm) on .jsp . In editing mode when trying to save text containing the letter Eclipse complains:

enter image description here

If it is saved as UTF-8 following the advice the complaints stop, but instead of š I get:

clearly **š** not

Current configuration:

Resource => explicitly set to other: UTF-8

Preferences => Web => ISO 10646/ UNICODE UTF-8

Loading files => User workspace encoding : YES

How the letter should look like(example): http://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/lietuvi%C5%A1kai

I am totally clueless.

My fault, forgot to add:

 <%@ page language="java" contentType="text/html; charset=UTF-8"
pageEncoding="UTF-8"%>

at the top of the .jsp file. Hope that helps anyone.

I develop web app JSPs with Eclipse IDE and this would automatically generated by the JSP template. But the charset variable do affects the output of characters with default encoding ISO 8859-1 (e.g. Mandarin).
