conker87 Posted June 17, 2008 Share Posted June 17, 2008 Is that outputted at the start of your page? If it is, then check to see if there are any foreign characters there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
webbiedave Posted June 17, 2008 Share Posted June 17, 2008 Can you give us the url to the affected page? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thebadbad Posted June 17, 2008 Share Posted June 17, 2008 It's the Byte-Order-Mark displaying. It tells some editors that the encoding is UTF-8. You're best off removing it from the file, using a HEX editor, or as me: Using Notepad++, and choose the format "UTF-8 without BOM". For a deeper explanation, read one of my previous posts: http://www.phpfreaks.com/forums/index.php/topic,172309.msg763880.html#msg763880 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
