I didn't try anything.
I wouldn't know a UTF-8 it it walked up and bit me on the ass. :-)
But I *do* know that PHP's fwrite is much too low-level to be doing
encoding types and whatnot.
It just writes whatever you tell it.
If you think it's always saving in windows default encoding, perhaps your
test is not distinguishing between having no BOM (whatever that is) and
having the Windows BOM or whatever makes you think it's Windows format.
As far as getting rid of the BOM, assuming you've got your UTF-8 string
thingie, and you know where the BOM occurs, you'd just use
http://php.net/substr on it, I reckon...
