Weird things happening with Netscape and Firefox

When I publish my entire site Firefox and Netscape throw in this “” whatever it is before the html tag”. What’s that about?

It only does this on this [url=”http://members.home.nl/cartoonsmart/klanten.htm”]page[/url].

Why is this, and better how do I fix this

Like Firefox, the [url=http://validator.w3.org/]w3c validator[/url] sees it in your source code. But I don't see it in your source code in IE. Are you generating your DOCTYPE dynamically?

@kiwibritJul 17.2006 — I wonder if it is an http header problem.

@drhowarddrfineJul 17.2006 — It's the Byte Order Mark from utf-8. I have to run but look to see how you are saving your page, unicode or ansi?, and what your charset is in your code. Try changing it to utf-8 (we should all do that anyway). Or google for BOM.

@cartoonsmartauthorJul 17.2006 — It's the BOM indeed, someone mentioned it on another forum. It's because I hadn't saved that particular page in ASCII or ANSI.

Thanks anyway.
