IE6 + international locale causes odd chars before DOCTYPE --> odd behabiours

[webhouse]

Hello

If I select a language other than English, the roundcube interface has some unwanted results when using Internet Explorer 6. For example:
- Bottom line at main message list window gets inside the message list
- In the compose new mail window, the input box has only 3-4 lines
- Some box borders are missing...

I traced the server raw response with a a packet sniffer and I noticed extrange characters before tag:

==============================

Those chars are in HEX: 0d 0a 0d 0a ef bb bf ef bb bf
Internet explorer probably is ignoring DOCTYPE tag because of this and rendering the page like HTML with IE custom CSS boxes behaviour.

Mozilla Firefox works fine.

This only happens when I select a language other than English.


I am using RoundCube v0.1-rc1 with PHP 4.3.9

I found it!

$INSTALL_PATH.'program/localization/'.$sess_user_lang.'/labels.inc'
$INSTALL_PATH.'program/localization/'.$sess_user_lang.'/messages.inc'

These two files have "ef bb bf" at the beginning. These charecters idetify the file as UTF-8 but they are not necessary (I think so)

Removing these extra chars the problem was solved.
