The 0xc2 is another issue. While I am sure that the validation doesn't require a 0xc2 after a number, why it is there and how to make it go away I have no clue. Apparently it must be a non-display character in UTF. It precedes a non-break space, so maybe it has something to do with that.
0xc2 is the first byte of a 2-byte UTF-8 sequence for a character between U+0080 and U+00BF.
