The hex characters corresponding to  characters are EF BB BF , which are the the BOM characters.
They're not just in the compiled JSP but also in the uncompiled JSP source, but because they usually appear at the start of the document the browser doesn't render them. I was able to see it in Firefox , with Ctrl + A . The characters usually appear before the opening html tag or DOCTYPE tag. -Rashmi ----- Original Message ---- From: Christopher Schultz <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: Tomcat Users List <users@tomcat.apache.org> Sent: Thursday, March 15, 2007 9:36:19 AM Subject: Re: Strange characters appear in my compiled JSP files -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Langas, Langas de los Langas wrote: > I have developed a JSP application in Tomcat 5.5, and everything is OK > with it when you use Microsoft Internet Explorer; but, in a couple of > pages, with Mozilla Firefox and Netscape, these characters appeared at > the top of the page (and at the beginning of the source code): > >  What are the unicode codes for those characters?
