Bug: Export templates and UTF8BOM

(1/3) > >>

svenne:
This is about export templates and the charset encoding UTF8BOM, PVD v0.9.9.21:
It seems to me that something goes wrong when exporting with:
encoding="UTF8BOM"
Every template using UTF8BOM generates three characters (the byte order mark) at the beginning of the exported file. These should be invisible, but every program I tested does not interpret them. They are displayed instead. Special characters within the text are broken. As an example: "ü" will be "ü". Notepad (unicode capable, WinXP) reports the files to be ANSI-encoded instead of UTF-8. Different files (not generated with PVD) saved as UTF8 with and without byte order mark are handled correctly by Notepad.

Another unicode issue?

So that's why I was getting "?»?" at the beginning of my files. I'm glad I'm not alone. :-\

Strange, but really all apps I tried did interpreted the BOM.
You are using Windows 7 as well, Rick, where do you see these characters?

I believe in html files edited with notepad, or some other "pad". I can confirm appearance of those characters unrelated to PVD but with earlier unicode issues in html files exported from "WhereIsIt?"
