I think this is the UTF8 BOM file header.
Check if your file has the UTF8 encoding.
These chars were generated also in previous versions. |

I did use utf8 but why does DHE generate these characters before the doctype?
There is no reason for their use.

I have had the same problem, and it took a while to solve.
My problem was caused by a strange quotation mark in some text that I
copied and pasted. ie a 'strange character' will cause it.
You?ve instead of You've......there is a difference!
Hope this helps someone. |

If you look very hard at the apostrophes they are different!!
I take out the left apostrophe, and the ? goes away.

The strange characters are completely normal;
if you use different "apostrophes" probably D.H.W.E. doesn't use the UTF8 encoding so you'll not see the BOM |

That's right. It is caused by a different character set, caused by text pasted into a label.
I don't want them as they appear before the <?php tag....resulting in errors!!
Once you know what causes it, you know what to look for to remove it.
I have solved my problem. Hopefully this will help someone else solve theirs. |

You will actually get the ?, or sometimes what appears to be just a blank space at the top of your code and before the <html> tag
if using .htm or .html extension, or before <?php or <% if using php or asp.
(this space will give errors in running php)
I have found this is always caused by different character sets being used on the page. These can happen when text has been cut and pasted
from another source (webpage, word, pdf etc) into a dhe label or similar text field.
They are not always easy to find (could be ' " - among others), but they will be the cause of the initial space. |

| Uncheck the option "use UTF8 chars" in the options and you're done. |
