#27637 [NEW]: Using include/require with utf-8 files, BOM gets copied too much...

From: pete at flifl dot com Operating system: Linux RH9 Apache2.0.46 php4.3.2 PHP version: 4.3.4 PHP Bug Type: *Languages/Translation Bug description: Using include/require with utf-8 files, BOM gets copied too much... Description: ------------ When using include/require with utf-8 files, the Byte Order Mark (BOM) apparently gets copied too many times. It will look like this: 00000000h: FF FE FF FE FF FE ... where only one (FF FE) is supposed to be. (php version in question is php4.3.2 and I could not find any mention of this bug in either the change log OR the advanced search of bugs.php.net - I expect the bug to still exist... version 5's just released) Reproduce code: --------------- Use ultraedit -> convert dos/ascii files to utf-8 (with unicode editing) -> include one .php file in another -> observe multiple BOM's (FE FF's) by view source of page in hex. Expected result: ---------------- The extra BOM's shows as "yb" (approx.) in ascii and as CRLF on webpages... The extra CRLF is *hardly* desirable... Actual result: -------------- The extra BOM's shows as "yb" (approx.) in ascii and as CRLF on webpages... The extra CRLF is *hardly* desirable... -- Edit bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=27637&edit=1 -- Try a CVS snapshot (php4): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=27637&r=trysnapshot4 Try a CVS snapshot (php5): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=27637&r=trysnapshot5 Fixed in CVS: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=27637&r=fixedcvs Fixed in release: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=27637&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=27637&r=needtrace Need Reproduce Script: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=27637&r=needscript Try newer version: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=27637&r=oldversion Not developer issue: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=27637&r=support Expected behavior: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=27637&r=notwrong Not enough info: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=27637&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=27637&r=submittedtwice register_globals: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=27637&r=globals PHP 3 support discontinued: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=27637&r=php3 Daylight Savings: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=27637&r=dst IIS Stability: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=27637&r=isapi Install GNU Sed: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=27637&r=gnused Floating point limitations: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=27637&r=float
