    what are you trying to do? if you run a blog and are wanting to hit search engines with titles of your blog posts always use <h2> title </h2> it has a stronger impact (atleast from what i can tell) with search plus alot of seo people will look at it that way..If i am missing what you are getting at please give me an example and i can help you out.

    I think the search engine will ignore them on a page basis.

    Remember searche engines like google use quotes to define a search term as being a "specific term" versus a general term. If it were to track quotes on a site, this would likely interfere with the potential search results.

    I believe this is the case for all special characters, @, #, $,% etc....
