The mouseover in the main page shows a lot of boxes.– mmyersJul 28, 2009 at 19:22

@mmyers what browser?– jjnguyJul 28, 2009 at 19:25

mouseover doesn't appear at all for me– Ian ElliottJul 28, 2009 at 19:26

@Ian, me too .– jjnguyJul 28, 2009 at 19:26

And another odd thing, when I copy the Unicode into the comment box, it doesn't show up at all. The character count updates, and backspacing changes the count but doesn't move the cursor.– mmyersJul 28, 2009 at 19:32

1@mmyers, the character has zero width– Ian ElliottJul 28, 2009 at 19:36

Ah, I see.– mmyersJul 28, 2009 at 19:37

2I could have put the zero-width character in the title, too, but then no one would be able to click it. As a test, I did use it in the title of a post on a forum I frequent. It's completely unclickable and I am completely happy with that.– WelbogJul 28, 2009 at 19:46

2By design, eh? What's the point of enforcing a character limit when you can just fill it with nondisplaying characters? Seriously, where is the sense in that?– WelbogAug 4, 2009 at 11:53

I got sick of the umpteen bajillion "bugs" opened on this, so we "fixed the bug".
Also made it Zero Width Non Joiner aware.
Enjoy.

In retrospect it seems to only be U200B that is unchecked. I thought it was the whole range.
