What the heck??

Sometimes , when I use a percent symbol while posting , it reads % instead of the percent sign. Like 20% sometimes comes out 20%. What could that be??

I have now seen this happen to other people here. Its not me or my system , its the site software changing a percent sign to % when we post. Note that the symbals & and # are the symbols over the numbers 3 and 7.

Very starnge but happy to see its not me.

I know FB will that something similar with various symbols, even apostrophe or quotes.

FB = Facebook

I see it happened to John on his post about the S-B job bank idea. That is a weird thing.

Try on this forum typing the word off followed by double quote:

%$%$%$%$

but off followed by a single quote is OK: off'
