ID: 22108 Updated by: sniper@php.net Reported By: bugzilla@jellycan.com Status: Feedback Bug Type: Output Control Operating System: windows 2000 PHP Version: 4.2.3 New Comment: And why an earth would you save PHP files in any other format than ascii? Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2003-02-07 08:53:10] derick@php.net What is a BOM ? Derick ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2003-02-07 08:46:36] bugzilla@jellycan.com 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
