yes it would.  As soon as you did the find and replace, it would automatically save the page which would automatically take the BOM marking off the page. At least that is what it says.]]> Thu, 17 May 2012 21:50:58 +0000 http://www.expression-web-designer-help.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=5774&PID=33029#33029 General Expression web problems : Save the document as http://www.expression-web-designer-help.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=5774&PID=33028#33028 Author: GuyThomas

Thanks, that will be useful for future files, but alas it would not change existing files.]]> Thu, 17 May 2012 21:38:00 +0000 http://www.expression-web-designer-help.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=5774&PID=33028#33028 General Expression web problems : Save the document as http://www.expression-web-designer-help.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=5774&PID=33026#33026 Author: tcertain

If you have Expression Web 3 or 4 you can set Tools > Page Editor Options >Authoring and uncheck all the boxes in the BOM box.  Then you will not get BOM when you resave the page.]]> Thu, 17 May 2012 21:05:46 +0000 http://www.expression-web-designer-help.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=5774&PID=33026#33026 General Expression web problems : Save the document as http://www.expression-web-designer-help.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=5774&PID=33025#33025 Author: GuyThomas

Thanks for your research.  The secret of success was to use PowerShell or something other than Web Expression to find and replace.  That way no BOM flag was added.]]> Thu, 17 May 2012 20:55:35 +0000 http://www.expression-web-designer-help.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=5774&PID=33025#33025 General Expression web problems : Save the document as http://www.expression-web-designer-help.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=5774&PID=33021#33021 Author: tjaks

I've done some reading and found the BOM is very closely related to using utf-8. Read this article and see if it helps you at all. 

Are you actually seeing the BOM on the published pages?

Many thanks for your prompt reply.  Good old Find and Replace will save me hours of work as it's a big site.

I am still interested in the BOM

You can use Find and Replace for the meta data but I'm not sure about changing the BOM. ]]> Wed, 16 May 2012 23:13:51 +0000 http://www.expression-web-designer-help.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=5774&PID=33019#33019 General Expression web problems : Save the document as http://www.expression-web-designer-help.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=5774&PID=33018#33018 Author: GuyThomas

I would like to change all my pages from
 
<meta charset=utf-8>
To
<meta content="text/html; charset=utf-8"http-equiv="Content-Type">
 
Can I do a simple search and replace?  Or do I have to manually edit the property sheet?
 
Supplimentary question
I see the BOM checkbox in the Page property sheet, but I cannot see it in the 'Code'.   Is it possible to see and change this setting in the 'Code' view?

I didn't think Vista was capable of IE9, although I could be wrong.

But as it is, I viewed in Windows 7, IE7, 8 and 9. And could not tell the difference with FF.  As Vista is very much on its way out, Microsoft has said they are no longer updating it, the vast majority have moved to Windows 7.  Vista was a buggy product at best along with IE8. 

I would work with what the vast majority of persons use which is Windows 7.  Preview and edit for FF, view and correct for Chrome and IE9.  And unless it is way far off from one to the other, I would leave it alone.  These 3 browsers are the most common and all 3 are pretty close in rendering which was not always true. 

Sometimes the fix is worse than if you had left it alone. A couple of pixels here or there, its not like anyone but you is going to compare FF version to IE version.  It more than likely has to do with the default values (in the browsers) and resolutions between one computer to the other

I am sure there is a web designer besides me here that will argue, but this is MHO.
