QUESTION: How do I avoid writing the Byte Order Mark ?
It's for HTML pages: validator is complaining about the mark.
file. When the file the read, the BOM is not part of the file data.
If you read the file as a binary file instead of a text file, you don't
get an encoded string, you get a binary image of a unicode file.
The validator message is:
Byte-Order Mark found in UTF-8 File.
The Unicode Byte-Order Mark (BOM) in UTF-8 encoded files is known to
cause problems for some text editors and older browsers. You may want
to consider avoiding its use until it is better supported.
I am looking for a way NOT to write the BOM, because the validator
complains.
How do avoid the BOM writing ?
-P
using System.Text.Encoding.UTF8, you should create a new UTF8Encoding
object. By default, a new one won't include the the preamble (BOM).- Nascondi testo tra virgolette -
- Mostra testo tra virgolette -
If this is true, it is a simple solution.
I will try that. I am wondering why a new object would behave
differently (?)
-P
Well, one of the constructors for the UTF8Encoding class allows you to
include a BOM or not. If you use the default constructor then the
default is to not include the BOM.- Nascondi testo tra virgolette -

Thanks! That works fine.
