In reply to: get_header and get_footer break design with weird charactersTrollivier, I’m having the same problem, but your workaround didn’t work for me
See: http://wordpress.org/support/topic/272302?replies=5#post-1078884
Have you already solved it ? If so, could you explain it here ?
Thanks

In reply to: Layout mysteriously breaking (Not a CSS problem)I think the problem is caused by a weird character (Unicode) being outputed just before any code in all pages.
When looking at the source code, I can’t see it, but if I paste the source code in notepad and save it, notepad says that the file contains “Unicode characters that will be lost if saving in ANSI”, as I mentioned before. What I discovered is that if I save the file and then open it again, a question mark (?) is placed before any code in the page.
?<!DOCTYPE html…
t31os_ , you can see a “dodgy square character” in IE, but that Unicode character is in every page, in every theme, and also in the admin pages.
And kmessinger, thanks for pointing to validation. It confirmed what I think as you can see:
Line 1, Column 1: character “” not allowed in prolog
…<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC “-//W3CBut, again, it has nothing to do with CSS. It happens with all the themes I’ve tried and also in the admin section. This is caused by the wp output… The header having a margin bottom is not the problem definitively.
I’ve found similar problem in these posts, but the solutions didn’t work for me

In reply to: Layout mysteriously breaking (Not a CSS problem)They only appear when viewed from IE on the login page.
Weird… to be the cause of the problem, shouldn’t them be everywhere ?
(don’t know if characters can be hidden or ‘not-viewable’, but they are for me)I only see the gap on the main page in FF, not IE…
I see the gap doesn’t matter the browser, it is always there for me (Firefox 3.0.1 and IE7)
What are you using to edit files?
I use notepad.
I think you where right at your guess. You see, when I copy the source code of a page in notepad and try to save it, it tells me that it contains “Unicode characters that will be lost if saving in ANSI”. So it seems that encoding can be the problem, but…. how did this come up ? My first thought was that editing the files of the theme could have caused the problem, but it happens in all themes I’ve tried… any ideas ?
Thank you, this keeps me alive

In reply to: Layout mysteriously breaking (Not a CSS problem)t31os_, thanks for your feedback. I can’t see these extra characters. Can you paste them ? And… could you tell when do you see them ? Only when the layout breaks ? Can you see them in Firefox ? This could also explain the gap above the header.
Thank you
