Don't be put off by the 3% figure --
It would be interesting to see the results of a "moving to standards based" poll. This would be more reflective of the current status of web standards around the globe, I feel - it's what a lot of us are trying to do at the moment.
Remember that the validator would baulk at one & instead of an & - this doesn't necessarily mean that it should be placed in the non-standard basket. If the intent is their but the algorithms to convert to htmlspecialchars aren't then it's ok by me (a small fix :D).

This is certainly a clear demonstration of just how much work is still to be done, to get standards fully established and implemented across the 'Net. I have no idea what the numbers are for where I live, in the United States. I daresay they wouldn't be much better.
