"%" not recognized by IE

Question

IE is not recognizing % entity in both 8 and 9 versions. I tested in two computers.

I read that it is implemented in IE here: http://code.google.com/p/doctype/wiki/PercntCharacterEntity

Any idea?

Thanks

According to the HTML ASCII Reference you can just use %, IE should play nicely with that :-)

Strangely though, according to the Google doctype wiki % is supposed to be supported in all versions of IE from 6 to 8, so it should work in IE8
