well, I finally decided to ask this here after trying so many times to remove this.
I googled and learned this is Byte Order Mark.
Something to do with saving your file in the wrong format.
It is producing these 3 signs and as a result a white bar at the top of my website. (See image attached)
Signs are not always there, the white bar is.
I cannot find out what file this is causing.
I have changed many files back to original knowing I edited those. But no luck. #-o
<div id="page"><!-- page wrapper -->
<?php include ('./EUwarning/wrnWarningv3.php');
#echo $wrnHead; // if you want the yellow box with your message
#echo $wrnStrings // if you want the warnings before anything else remove the #
?>
<!-- header -->
First remove all those lines and test again.
If the BOM characters disappear check the warning script.
IMPORTANT: Most modern scripts are in UTF-8.
You should never ever use notepad.exe of ms-word to edit your scripts.
Always use the free program editor notepad++ (for windows) or BB-edit on a Mac
If the wrnWarningv3.php script is causing this, open the file in notepad++ and when saving make sure it read UTF-8 w/o BOM, as in the screenshot,
WIth the Saratoga templates, you should NOT use UTF-8 when editing any of the files. The template scripts are all in ISO-8859-n (not UTF-8). All my scripts can produce UTF-8 output, but by default use ISO-8859-n when running in the Saratoga template.
Fully correct, no problem with BOM. For all Saratoga scripts.
But he is using my eu-warning scripts, and as all of my scripts, they are fully UTF-8.
The user should be careful editing those.
His web-server is also UTF-8

Using notepad++ one can never insert BOM by accident as the script-editor does not insert those characters. Only word-processing programs such as notepad.exe and MS-Word do that.
