DescriptionThe zero width no-break space (ZWNBSP) is a deprecated use of the Unicode character at code point U+FEFF.
Character U+FEFF is intended for use as a Byte Order Mark (BOM) at the start of a file.
However, if encountered elsewhere, it should, according to Unicode, be treated as a "zero width no-break space".
The deliberate use of U+FEFF for this purpose is deprecated as of Unicode 3.2, with the word joiner strongly preferred.
