 * I am getting posts of a category but the JSON returns with 4 characters plus 
   the correct part.
    eg: [http://plbpc006.ouhk.edu.hk/tc/api/get_posts/?category=news](http://plbpc006.ouhk.edu.hk/tc/api/get_posts/?category=news)
 * There is 79bc on first line which causes the JSON file cannot be used.
    Any one
   can help? please

 * I discovered that the first line is hexadecimal value of character count(with
   space) of the json but i still can’t find where does it comes from.
