Look up in your handy dandy ASCII table for the value of % and the value for &

and then convert to HEX and put between the % symbol
which is 38 decimal, 26 hex for &
and 37 decimal, 25 hex for %

therefore to display a '&' sign in your URL encoded text, put %26% in it
and for '%' to display, put %25% in your text file.
