I have a BOM character in my html file. I want to remove It. I have searched a lot and used a lot of scripts and etc... . But no one worked. I have downloaded notepad++ too, but there is not encoding "UTF8 without BOM" in its encoding menu. How can I delete that BOM character? thanks.

First, you need to decode the file contents, not encode them. Second, the csv module doesn't like unicode strings in Python 2.7, so having decoded your data you need to convert back to utf-8. Finally, csv. reader is passed an iteration over the lines of the file, not a big string with linebreaks in it.
If you select the Save As dialog, it will immediately ask you to save the file as "Unicode Text" rather than CSV. If you select the "CSV" extension and save the file it removes the BOM (obviously along with all the Japanese characters).
If you want to remove the byte order mark from a source code, you need a text editor that offers the option of saving the mark. You read the file with the BOM into the software, then save it again without the BOM and thereby convert the coding. The mark should then no longer appear.
If you look in the same menu. Click "Convert to UTF-8."
