sniper, imagine someone would want to echo some text in eg. French. In that case, if you'd save it as ascii, you would get corrupted output. So instead you'd have to save as utf-8. Which seems to cause problems (or so [EMAIL PROTECTED] tells us) Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2003-02-07 08:58:21] [EMAIL PROTECTED] And why an earth would you save PHP files in any other format than ascii? ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2003-02-07 08:53:10] [EMAIL PROTECTED] What is a BOM ? Derick ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2003-02-07 08:46:36] [EMAIL PROTECTED] Problem: When a php file is saved in utf-8 format with the UTF-8 BOM as the first three bytes of the file (EF BB BF), PHP doesn't ignore these bytes when loading and compiling the file, but instead considers them output coming prior to the <?php. This causes incorrect display of the page and failure of any http header output. It does this even when the internal character format is set in php.ini to be utf-8. Desired outcome: PHP recognizes the utf-8 bom and disregards it. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=22108&edit=1
