% and _ sign in Qlik Sense Map layers with SVG images /text

[nikunj0580]

How to show  %  or  &  symbols in SVG  based text  within Map layer ?   Sample code below where I would like yo display a KPI with % . The text works well but moment any function with  % or & sign is added in text , the object disappears in layout. 

'<g transform="matrix(6 0 0 4 1625 875)">'& // KPI : Female and URN
'<text text-anchor="middle" font-family="Roche Sans" font-weight="bold" font-size="12" fill="rgb(0,0,0)">' &
'<tspan dominant-baseline="middle" text-anchor="middle" x="0" y="10">' & 'F ' & $(vKPI_Underrep_Exec_CM) & '('& '77' & '%'& ')'& '</tspan>' & //$(vKPI_Executive_CM_Female_Param(*,*))
'</text>' &
'</g>'&

@Patric_Nordstrom  - Any thoughts? If you could have a look , would be very helpful.

'%' and  '&' are reserved keywords in url, encode to ASCII with https://www.w3schools.com/tags/ref_urlencode.asp

@Patric_Nordstrom  : Thank you . I just tried.  % and other characters seem to be working well with ASCII encoding in expression but  encoding for "&" (ampersand) sign does not work yet. I tried "%26".  Could you let me know specific encoding to use for & (ampersand ) sign ? %26 seem to be working on other web interfaces but  for some how not  working in Qlik sense.
