Byte order mark is the informal name of the special Unicode character encoding that appear as a magic number at the start of a text file or any other file types. Or consider it as representation for the UTF-8<\/a> BOM in ISO-8859-1.#<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

For example: when you change a file using different editor software and upload that file to your website like\u201c.htaccess or php\u201d then on browsing the website you are getting<\/p>

public_html\/.htaccess: Invalid command \u2018\\xef\\xbb\\xb\u2019, perhaps misspelled or defined by a module not included in the server configuration. Now your website may not work and it will show Error 500. Even if you are trying to edit the file in normal editor you wont be able to find out and remove those BOM.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t
