\ufeff error? javafx (SOLVED)

Question

when I google it, nothing explains what it is. the only thing I got is that there an illegal character that I cant see?

Its also worth noting Im using intelij and I tried with the same error on java 6 & 8. Also, when I put it into the playground a get a slightly different error

Answer 1

Hmm, It's a hidden ASCII trick, if you go to line 10 at the very last character(;), try to take a closer look at the semicolon and click delete button, nothing happened? Its an ASCII hidden trick, if you copied it from another site, they probably did it to reduce copyright. If not, its SoloLearns bug

Answer 2

@TheRedSpy Yes the ASCII is hidden in line 10 which is one of the imported files, I dont know if this would work, but I'd write it manually again.

Answer 3

@TheRedSpy Yay, Happy coding good luck :)

Answer 4

@complex

I didnt copy it which is strange..... or atleast I didnt copy and paste, I typed it manually from a youtube video. Although I did copy and paste the imports
