Luca,

It's hard to tell without looking at the live site. One problem I've
occasionally had in the past that might be relevant here: If any of
your local files got saved with encoding UTF-8 (or utf-16) with BOM.
An invisible character, the 'byte-order-mark,' is inserted at the top
of the file. This has caused me trouble in the past, but usually with
json data files.

If you can give us a live URL, maybe someone can offer something more
to the point.
