New web toy

[mofoburrell]

A while back, Marla had an email address someone had copied and pasted that wasn't working. I took a look at it and eventually found that it had a non-printable special character inside it (I think the character is called "zero-width whitespace" or something like that). I took a couple minutes today to make a little Javascript tool that'll help

In your example.com the unknown character is 200b, which seems to translate to ♂ (alt-8203). What's going on here?

I don't know what Windows is doing to you, but ♂ is 9794, not 8203. You can look it up here.
