Thanks for your answers, and especially to Rashmi. You were right: my text editor (Ultra Edit) was to blame. After copying the plain text to another editor, the problem was solved.

I had a similar problem with one of the JSPs,

the only way I could solve it was, copy the original JSP's source code into another plain-text editor like jEdit (or any editor that doesn't alter text, or has unusual encoding) then, delete the JSP file , and re-create a new JSP with the same name and re-paste the text from jEdit, perform a clean build.

The problem could most likely be occuring because the editor or some other application might have inserted those characters.

Also have this <%@ page contentType="text/html;charset=UTF-8" language="java" %> on top of the JSP.

Subject: Strange characters appear in my compiled JSP files


Hello to everyone. Sorry if my English isn't perfect. I have a problem with
Tomcat for which I have found explanation neither in the FAQ, nor searching
the web, nor asking other programmers... So, I guess you're my only hope.

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):



All the JSP files have the same structure, the Java code is virtually the
same, with differences just in the HTML. Looking at the Java source code of
the pages, (at "Tomcat 5.5\work\Catalina\localhost\tarific\org\apache\jsp" -
'tarific' being the name of the application) I found the cause: the pages
that work fine include the next fragment of code:

try {
      _jspxFactory = JspFactory.getDefaultFactory();
      response.setContentType("text/html; charset=iso-8859-1");
      pageContext = _jspxFactory.getPageContext(this, request, response,
                  null, true, 8192, true);
      _jspx_page_context = pageContext;
      application = pageContext.getServletContext();
      config = pageContext.getServletConfig();
      session = pageContext.getSession();
      out = pageContext.getOut();
      _jspx_out = out;

      out.write('\r');
      out.write('\n');

But the three pages that don't work properly have this code, instead:

try {
      _jspxFactory = JspFactory.getDefaultFactory();
      response.setContentType("text/html; charset=iso-8859-1");
      pageContext = _jspxFactory.getPageContext(this, request, response,
                  null, true, 8192, true);
      _jspx_page_context = pageContext;
      application = pageContext.getServletContext();
      config = pageContext.getServletConfig();
      session = pageContext.getSession();
      out = pageContext.getOut();
      _jspx_out = out;

      out.write("\r\n");

Which leads me me to my question: can anyone tell me where to find
information about this strange behaviour of the compiler, so I can prevent
this from happening?

Thank you all for your attention.
