What type of field are you referring to? HTML input field? Is it a
text area or an input with type=text? How do you get the value from
the field?

If the value contains &nbsp; then it's probably HTML so removing the
HTML encoding will break the HTML as you can also have &gt; or &lt;

before <em>&nbsp;1 &lt; 2</em> after

I guess what you are trying to achieve is to get the plain text from
an HTML content.

Hope this helps,
Marius
