So, I inherited this project and I'm coming across this weird Unicode error the website is rendering:  Now, when I use the Developer Tool Kit inside the Zen cart admin panel to find where this error is, it says the location is: Line #0 : <?php, how could this happen? If I knew where the error was being produced I would post a code snippet but, I honestly have no idea. Any suggestions?

Have you searched your php files for that string? – castis Jun 02 '15 at 18:21

I have, that's why I'm displaying where the error is coming up. The odd thing is it's saying it's being produced on line 0 which makes no sense because, there is no line 0. – ARLCode Jun 02 '15 at 18:22

1It looks like a "shadow" character somewhere within a PHP file. As this post suggest (http://stackoverflow.com/questions/18845976/whats-%C3%AF-sign-at-the-beginning-of-php-source-file), you should try to save all files as UTF-8 without BOM. – Ivan Gabriele Jun 02 '15 at 18:24

You know what, I was notified by Visual Studio ultimate 2013 to save it as a UTF-8 I wonder if that was happened. Do you know how I would convert it to UTF-8 without BOM on Visual Studio 2013? – ARLCode Jun 02 '15 at 18:26

Ivan Gabriele is correct it is referred to as a shadow character: What's  sign at the beginning of my source file?
The why to resolve the issue in Visual Studio is also posted here: UTF-8 without BOM
