The % character starts a comment in LaTeX, and vim will therefore use
the syntax highlight for comments. It sounds to as if that's the case
here. If you want to insert a literal '%' in LaTeX, you have to use
'\%'.

That means that the part between the "'"s is treated as a string, and
you also will have to escape that character in some way.
Hope that helps,
Jan
