Percent Symbol Not Showing

[Springbird]

Uhmm... I hate it when I can't figure something out, I really have taken a lot of math, but what does the ampersand pound sign ratio thing mean. 18%/...

If you reply and I'm not here, it is because Hurricane Earl is arriving as we speak, lots of thunder and lightning, wind is not too bad (Yet?).

If you were refering to my post...that was just a typo. lol

Trying to do too many things at once.

As I understand it, during the forum software updating process, the percent sign isn't being displayed properly.

Let me test a percent sign ...

100%

OK, the "%" was typed in as a percent sign. These things will be resolved, give them a few days.

I believe that's just the new forum design still not handling some symbols properly. NCC got it.

AhHa! It's only the first one. And I was able to edit my post to get rid of it also.

In the "Basic Recipe" thread on this forum. Lol... I've been scratching my head wondering if it was borrowed chemistry, engineering or computer software notation. I feel much better. I was thinking that my minor in math was a waste of time, or that alzheimer's was setting in... Thanks so much for the reply. On another note I just sent in a big TPA order. Black Cherry, Caramel, Clove, Cinnamon RedHots, Chai Tea, Creme de Menthe, Double Chocolate, Gingerbread, Grape, Peppermint, Pineapple, Peach, Plum, Spearmint, and Waffle. I just love those little bottles for $1.40 @. The double chocolate has been remixed says the website. When you click on it it has a wonderful picture of a dark chocolate cake. I hope that her chocolate cake tastes like mine.

Man I thought I was going crazy I couldn't figure out what those numbers meant also whew
So where can I start very simple let's say I want to make a 0 nice flavor at a 70/30 pg/by and then maybe make it 24 mg nic where can I find the simplest way to learn this much loraines this much pg this much vg then if you want this much nic. I feel so stupid but I have read so much and I am more confused than before I started
Thanks

My suggestion would be to try Scubabatdan's e-liquid Calculator. You can find it towards the top of the DIY liquids subforum. I use it all the time. It opens with Excel. If you mix the flavor with the 70/30 liquid and then add the nic you will dilute your flavor. The calculator takes all of this into account and you end up with what you wanted, or at least what you think you wanted. Mix in small batches at first.

It is a known issue and is on the list to be addressed while the forum upgrade is completed

I've seen this happen on a few other sites; strange string of letter/symbols for things like the apostrophe, quotes, ampersand, dollar, etc.

I can usually figure out what should be there based on where it's located in the word.

It seems to be some sort of html (just guessing here) programming code that's not being converted to the correct character/symbol, or the symbol being converted back to the programming code.
