using eclipse 3M8..on XP jdk 1.4. only additional plugin downloaded is for
vss.

having some issues with opening xml files like build.xml or
struts-config.xml on some eclipse workstations (not all).

when i open a build.xml (that reads fine in a text editor and works fine)
it puts in 3 erratic characters in the beginning which needs to be taken
out for eclipse to read the file properly. this then corrupts the file in
the test editor. is there anything that needs to be done to prevent this?

also when opeing other .xml files like struts-config.xml or tiles-def.xml
it says cannot open then and gives an error. occasionally opens them in
the browser. generally just gves an error.

also, is there any way to configure it to run the default build target (in
our case - deploy) from a keyboard shortcut?

thanks.

The extra chars at the start are probably the BOM marks, byte order mark
used in unicode files. I don't know why you are having troubles with the XML
files.
