I want to delete the BOM from my imported file, but it just doesn't seem to work.
I tried to preg_replace('/[\x00-\x1F\x80-\xFF]/', '', $file);
and a str_replace.
I hope anybody sees what I'm doing wrong.
$filepath = get_bloginfo('template_directory')."/testing.csv";
setlocale(LC_ALL, 'nl_NL');
ini_set('auto_detect_line_endings',TRUE);
$file = fopen($filepath, "r") or die("Error opening file");
$i = 0;
while(($line = fgetcsv($file, 1000, ";")) !== FALSE) {
if($i == 0) {
$c = 0;
foreach($line as $col) {
$cols[$c] = utf8_encode($col);
$c++;
}
} else if($i > 0) {
$c = 0;
foreach($line as $col) {
$data[$i][$cols[$c]] = utf8_encode($col);
$c++;
}
}
$i++;
}

SOLVED VERSION:
setlocale(LC_ALL, 'nl_NL');
ini_set('auto_detect_line_endings',TRUE);
require_once(ABSPATH.'wp-admin/includes/file.php' );
$path = get_home_path();
$filepath = $path .'wp-content/themes/pon/testing.csv';
$content = file_get_contents($filepath);
file_put_contents($filepath, str_replace("\xEF\xBB\xBF",'', $content));
// FILE_PUT_CONTENTS AUTOMATICCALY CLOSES THE FILE
$file = fopen($filepath, "r") or die("Error opening file");
$i = 0;
while(($line = fgetcsv($file, 1000, ";")) !== FALSE) {
if($i == 0) {
$c = 0;
foreach($line as $col) {
$cols[$c] = $col;
$c++;
}
} else if($i > 0) {
$c = 0;
foreach($line as $col) {
$data[$i][$cols[$c]] = $col;
$c++;
}
}
$i++;
}
I found that it removes the BOM and adjusts the file by overwriting it with the new data. The problem is that the rest of my script doesn't work anymore and I can't see why. It is a new .csv file
