lucy/leosghost, cheers, will get onto this later today.

lucy, when you talk about converting to 8859-1 and me seeing the BOM characters, I presume this is not the same as altering the charset encoding which is now utf-8. Do you mean just within the actual editor so I can see the characters? You don't want me to alter the utf-8 charset that all my pages are now?

I think my text editor is alright, saving to utf-8 fine without the BOM - hence why I was getting the issue I reported earlier in the thread that I was copying and pasting a "bad page" html into a "new file", saving with text editor and the page was saving fine and opening in a browser okay. So I definitely think the utf-8 converter tool I downloaded is the guilty party, it went and added BOM to 3k files....doh!

I will report back - would love to see this thread get the "closure" it deserves. :)
