Topic: EF BB BF EF BB BF in downloaded files

ENGLISH

Hi!
The problemm:
Found out recently - files downloaded from forum  are dammaged. File comes with signature in the begining of file : EF BB BF EF BB BF. File size is the same so content is 6 bytes cut.
Files on server are Ok.
Its not critical for html but binary files become usless.

Whats this?

Maybe you should ask the Attachment mod's author ?

Re: EF BB BF EF BB BF in downloaded files

Maybe you're right.. But all output commes with this. not only attachments,  pages too. In attachment.php changed last string to:

// fpassthru($fp);
readfile($pun_config['attach_basefolder'].$attach_location);

no effect.

google "byte order marks"

its the utf8 encoding header of the file.  I don't think the server should be encoding its output like that.

Definitely unrelated to the default PunBB install, so I'm moving this to modifications.
