Hi,

some of our developer crew cannot view he application anymore because  
the templates have compile errors

Initially we used UTF-8 as file encoding. We use eclips to checkout  
the code. Even freshly chechedout templates do nmot compile on mongrel  
or webrick. the errors are differnet everytime.

I think it may have to do with those special bytes at the beginning of  
utf-8 files.
