bom-signature

Hi, I am using Komodo Edit as an IDE. I have to encode some files as UTF-8 without BOM in Komodo. In my localhost and site there is no problem but on some sites i am seeing BOM sign and this is a terrible problem for AJAX-JSON response. Any advices?

Thanks.

Forcing a mixed ISO-8859-1 and UTF-8 multi-line string into UTF-8

Consider the following problem: A multi-line string $junk contains some lines which are encoded in UTF-8 and some in ISO-8859-1. I don't know a priori which lines are in which encoding, so heuristics will be needed. I want to turn $junk into pure UTF-8 with proper re-encoding of the ISO-8859-1… >>> More
How can I tell if a CSV is in UTF-7 or UTF-8

as seen on Stack Overflow - Search for 'Stack Overflow'
Excel seems to save CSV files in (what I think is) UTF-7, despite the fact that most information I have read suggest that in general, you should not UTF-7. Indeed, other applications (Text pad, which lets me choose) save things in UTF-8 (or Unicode etc, but UTF-7 is not even an option). Using .NET… >>> More

Typical text encoding+BOM, and EOL behavior on mobile devices

as seen on Programmers - Search for 'Programmers'
Typical things to worry about when dealing with text are the BOM/signature, encoding, and the end of line (EOL) char/chars. I know that Windows often favours \r\n (CR+LF) and Mac/Linux favours \n (LF), but how about mobile devices such as the iPhone and Android? Do typical apps on those platforms… >>> More
