An extra space at top of web page.
Version: opencart 1.3.2

Precondition:
My local system does not have mail configured.

Steps:
1. register an account.
2. buy an item.
3. choose shipping method.
4. choose payment method.
5. At confirm page, the whitespace occurs. Route URL is opencart/index.php?route=checkout/confirm

HTML problematic line is:

Code: Select all

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

After I researched the problem, it is XML the first line of the webpage is corrupted.
though common editor like UltraEdit or EditPlus still shows that they XML syntax is correct.

i have a white space also at the top of my website only if i change the language to Arabic and direction is "rtl"
if i change the direction to "ltr" and lang "en" but the content is Arabic, the problem still exists.

using a hex editor, there are some rubbish text after the <body> tag, i cant figure out why those characters appear.

these are the characters in HEX:
ef bb bf ef bb bf ef bb bf ef bb bf ef bb bf ef bb bf ef bb bf ef bb bf ef bb bf

as in unicode the browser cant display them.

can any body help please?

issue is fixed after changing the encoding of all Arabic language files to UTF-8 without BOM.

Thanks
