Oh blast. The [Untested] gave it away, didn't it?
In InDesign and its immediate surroundings there are several different syntaxes to refer to a Unicode character.

* Inside InDesign (its Search & Replace box, for example) it is "<FEFF>".

* In GREP Find it is "\x{feff}" (although you can use "\xAB" if the higher byte is zeros).

However, you cannot try these methods, because .. in the InDesign document, the tag is not recoded to FEFF (yet).

* In JavaScript it should've been "\ufeff" -- this inserts the actual character into the javascript stream, so your JS parser should've read "\", "s", "<FEFF>".

* I'm probably missing a few ways.

Ehm -- and it tries to replace the tag with a space, which is quite possibly not what you want. Does this

      s = s.replace (/\ufeff/g, "");




replace it with nothing? If it doesn't, you'll have to find an alternative way of specifying the blasted character.
