Description:
------------
I was trying out different methods to input data from a file.
I was using file_get_contents to read a file, then echo to output the string. The thing is, it seems to be outputting extra characters, mostly asian characters.
It looks as if the html tags and other text are being changed to "?". if I remove all other non-php text, the extra output does not show up.

Reproduce code:
---------------
<?php
	$data = file_get_contents("Library.txt");
	echo $data;
?>
<html>
</html>

text.txt
--------
ABCDEFGHIJKLMONPQRSTUV

Expected result:
----------------
ABCDEFGHIJKLMONPQRSTUV

Actual result:
--------------
ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ ??ԡ&#15980;&#2573;&#12092;???I&#3390;&#3338; 

View Source
-----------
ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ
