HTML Validation Issue: Document uses the Unicode Private Use Area(s), which should not be used in publicly exchanged documents.

I want to use the character  as my submit character.   I am getting a validation warning:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
<title>Demo</title>
</head>
<body>

 <div>
  <input type="submit" class="fa submit" value="&#61442;">
 </div>

</body>
</html>

It is only a warning and not an error so you are good.

You could build a database of items like 1 = &#61442;, 2 = &#61443; etc. Then just post 1,2,3... and in your server side code, convert the 1 to &#61442 to display the content.  But like I said, it is just a warning.
