Mystery text on home page

[zenfire]

I cant figure out were this text () that is on my home page right above welcome to our site is coming from. I highlighted the text and circled it.

Here is a link to an example http://www.zenfirecelticshoppe.com/images/MysteryText.jpg

If you have something like Dreamweaver, you can have it search the code in all of your files for those characters.

I allready searched using Front Page for those characters and came up with nothing. That is why I am stumped...

Have you tried Examin text search?

It's because you are saving the file as a coding other than UTF8. Those odd characters are a UTF8 header signature so displaying it from a webserver that doesn't use UTF8 will show them up.

 

Use something like Notepad++ to edit the file with and save it as the same code page as your webserver uses.

Do you know how I can find out what my web server uses for the code page?

And when I save it as a UTF-8 file the mystrery text goes away but I get these errors at the top of the page.

I got it... I had to save the file /includes/text_blocks/welcome.htm as ANSI Encoding instead of UTF-8.

 

Thank You for everyone's quick replies and help!!!
