On my data entry form if someone pastes an un-recognized/un-printable character like "em space" (represented in HTML by   or   ) it is shown as a box in the browser IE 5.0. (displayed fine in Netscape7.01).
However it is replaced by its character reference i.e   when the form is submitted. So I cannot check and validate if I don't want these characters to go in my database. I want only ISO-8859-1 chars to be allowed. Although my validation checks for non-ISO chars like ( TM) and ? ? o etc, but not for "em space". Has anyone experienced this too? Can you tell me where does this translation occur(browser/tomcat)? Also what can I do to achieve validation of these types of characters.
