strpos -> special characters

[Digimatt]

I need to strpos a string to find the position of the first occurance of '%<br>'

does '%' need to be escaped? '\%<br>'

Thanks

Here's the code:

<?

$interesturl = "http://www.fha.com/";

$page = implode('', file($interesturl));

$beginstring = "30 Yr. Fixed<br>\r\t1.0 points<br>";

$parserate = stristr($page, $beginstring);

$endstring = "%<br>"; // should this be "\%<br>"?

$rate = substr($parserate, 0, strpos($parserate, $endstring));

echo $rate;

?>
