 * Whenever I use the % sign in a page I get an error 406:
    Not Acceptable An appropriate
   representation of the requested resource /wp/wp-admin/post.php could not be found
   on this server. Additionally, a 406 Not Acceptable error was encountered while
   trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.
 * I first found it when copying tables on pages – if they contained the % symbol
   as in width=”50%” I would get the error. Stopped doing that and everything is
   fine, however if you use the % in the page text, eg, “10% of the people thought…”
   you get the same error.
 * Never seen this before with any wordpress theme – is there an error in the theme,
   or is an error in my installation?

 * Hello malcolm302,
 * I added the following text in a testing page in text part of the editor and it
   appears perfectly on the page without any error.
 * The testing text was:
 * I got 95% in my exam.
    <table> <tbody> <tr> <th>Month</th> <th>Savings</th> </
   tr> <tr> <td>January</td> <td>$100%</td> </tr> </tbody> </table>
 * You try to add this text in your text editor ( not in visual part) and let me
   know whether it is working or not.

 * Tried that – no I still get the error.
 * If I remove the % characters its fine.
