EF BB BF, the BOM.<br>
<p style="-qt-paragraph-type:empty; margin-top:0px; margin-bottom:0px; margin-left:0px; margin-right:0px; -qt-block-indent:0; text-indent:0px; -qt-user-state:0;"><br></p>Then, I tried creating a new blank jsp, and opened it with okteta, and it also contains the 3 bytes in question. Creating the blank jsp was done through the workspace, not by accessing the vfs through webdav.<br>

They insert a blank line in several spaces in the layout.<br>
<p style="-qt-paragraph-type:empty; margin-top:0px; margin-bottom:0px; margin-left:0px; margin-right:0px; -qt-block-indent:0; text-indent:0px; -qt-user-state:0;"><br></p>So in the meantime I am not sure any more that the BOM causes a direct problem to my content, since all of the jsp seem to contain it when accessed in the vfs.<br>

Anyone having an idea where the "served BOM" could come from ?<br>
