It is probably a character that is outside of the Big5 or GB character set. Would you be able to post a sample source HTML file which exhibits the behavior so that we can verify?

ok, here is the code, i already posted it.... Here is the first line of my code

<html><body>上帝要人過這樣的生活嗎？

the text appears about 1/3 inch down the screen, and the question mark appears, at first position is the first left corner, it looks like it has nothing to do with my code.

you can see my attachment...

Don't cut and paste the text of the file into the post as that does not give the actual bytes of the file.

Please post the actual file as an attachment to the post.

Thanks for attaching the file. You have three extraneous bytes at the beginning of the file before the <html> tag. That is what is adding the question mark at the beginning of the content.
