 I am using a nested template with translation in my django template file.
 This is my basic html code:
 {{{
  <script id="invoice-date-modal-template" type="text/html">
         <div id="modal" class="reveal-modal tiny " data-reveal>
             <h5><%= client %> - <%= date %></h5>
             <h6>{% trans "Modify the invoice state of <%= client %> dated
 of <%= date %>?" %}</h6>
             <p>{% trans "Select the session invoice date and confirm."
 %}</p>
             <div class="row">...</div>
       </div>
  </script>
 }}}

 makemessages && compilemessages.

 In django.po: I see that the % characters has been doubled:
 {{{
 msgid ""
 "Modify the invoice state of <%%= client %%> of <%%= date %%>?"
 msgstr ""
 "Changer l'état de facturation de <%%= client %%> du <%%= date %%>?"
 }}}

 In my web application, I can see that my first trans is not translated,
 but the second one is ok.

 I've found a workaround for that: using blocktrans instead of trans. Doing
 it this way work in my application:
 {{{
 <h6>{% blocktrans %}Modify the invoice state of <%= client %> of <%= date
 %>?{% endblocktrans %}</h6>
 }}}


 Looks like something is different or missing with the trans template tag.
