Hello,<br />
<br />
This is in the header sent by my server for all .js files:<br />
<br />
Content-Type:·application/<wbr />x-javascri<wbr />pt(CR)(LF)<wbr /><br />
<br />
Can I encode my .js files in UTF-8 then send this header?<br />
<br />
Content-Type:·application/<wbr />x-javascri<wbr />pt;·charse<wbr />t=UTF-8(CR<wbr />)(LF)<br />
<br />
Or could that &nbsp;cause bugs?<br />
<br />
Thanks!

Character encoding for .js files

JavaScript is a dynamic, object-based language commonly used for client-side scripting in web browsers. Recently, server side JavaScript frameworks have also emerged. JavaScript runs on nearly every operating system and  in almost every mainstream web browser.
