Static validators emitting "nbsp;"
I have a .NET question.  For my particular application which is catoring to mobile devices (specifically blackberry at the moment), I am using validators (required field validator to be exact).

The problem is that I have disabled javascript from asp.net (by specifying ClientTarget="ie4", but setting EnableClientScript="False" on the validator tags has the same effect).  The actual issue is that when the validator is invisible, it emits "nbsp;" instead of nothing, is there some way to override this unwanted result?

Please do not reply solutions that include css or javascript, as I am unable to use either in my particular situation.

Thank you.
