This php code at the top of my page

[kelvinseasons]

<?php echo ‘<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?’.’>’; ?>

what is this code doing ? It screws up the positioning of my page in ie6.
I digged into the css files and everything is correct (i’m very certain) as i’m somewhat competant with css.
The almost giving up i resort to deleting line by line of code and i noticed <?php echo ‘<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?’.’>’; ?>
right at the top of my page. What is this and why is it distrupting my page layout in ie6.

After removing it, my page works fine across all browsers.

The bit of code your looking at handles the character encoding.

For instance if you were to type a normal english pound sign then it would appear. Without this code it would display a funky capital A kind of thing. If you can guarentee that all your symbols are entered correctly like the &Pound ascii character.
