How can UTF-8 encoding be properly set in an editor to avoid encoding-related errors in PHP scripts?

To properly set UTF-8 encoding in an editor to avoid encoding-related errors in PHP scripts, you need to ensure that the editor is configured to save files in UTF-8 format without BOM (Byte Order Mark). This can be done by selecting UTF-8 encoding without BOM in the editor settings. Additionally, make sure that your PHP scripts include a meta tag specifying UTF-8 encoding to inform the browser about the character encoding used in the document. 

<?php
header('Content-Type: text/html; charset=utf-8');
?>
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<meta charset="UTF-8">
<title>Your Title Here</title>
</head>
<body>
<!-- Your PHP script content here -->
</body>
</html>
