Is it safe to assume the data to be UTF-8?
If you just discard the byteordermark later, there's little reason to
add it (if there ever was).

BOM = 3 bytes
$thefile = array of lines of text terminated by newline.

I am not sure what to make of this. If you expect the browser to send
data in utf-8, then I would assume you serve your pages in utf-8, then
why convert the text to iso8859-1?

Start with simple file_put_contents and file_get_contents.
