How the hell do you do up a quote box. I'm afraid Moon will come along and put me in the corner for being such a dunce. I tried the arrow --> thingie, but it didn't work.

[Chocolate Lover]

See the top of each post where it says Re: whatever? Now look to the right....... see it? It says quote?

[ՏՇԾԵԵʅՏɧ_LԹՏՏʅҼ]

Sam: You have to use the Reply button when you want to put text in the Quotes box. That option doesn't work when you just use Quick Reply. (Same for using the Emot's)
