I don't know PCRElib, but I am not aspecting that it has anything to do with the issue as you mention "functions" reading unicode. It's not about that, it's about that PHP can't be started when the php script document is encoded in utf-8 format. This will cause 3 characters to print so that sending headers isn't possible anymore.... Also, PHP doesn't recognize UTF-8 characters in functions, but this is not the main issue I am refering to with the BOM of UTF-8 encoded documents. Best Regards, Jan Jaap Hakvoort ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2006-10-25 12:11:25] [EMAIL PROTECTED] PCRE functions in PHP are just wrappers for PCRElib. If PCRElib is unable to read Unicode texts with BOM, then it's PCRElib fault. But I guess you shouldn't be using Notepad in the first place. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2006-10-25 12:08:07] j dot hakvoort at publiceren dot net Ok, I found out that it's due to the folowing BUG in PHP...... UTF-8 encoded documents have 3 characters on top of the document wich specify the UTF-8, this is called BOM. These characters might be needed, but to get PHP working it would be required to remove these characters. The only solution to remove these characters I've found is by using special editors. This will take a huge amount of time! Is there no other solution for this?? Why doesn't PHP read UTF-8 encoded files???
