Quote text

I'm sure this has been asked before but I've searched and searched with no results that work. Can you quote text using a Firefox browser? The add quote button does nothing I've tried every way I can think of. I have no problem quoting in all the other forums I am a member of just this one.

    So what is the procedure other than the one I usually do in forums? I just highlighted FBB's text, hit add to quote an x shows up by the box. Of course the obvious simple way doesn't work.

    To do that I selected "Quote message" from the reply to message drop down menu.

    OK I highlighted your message, hit quote message, pops up a window with +show message replying to at top. I added text in message box hit preview and nothing happens. Nothing. (just like my drum map problem LOL)

    You have to enter YOUR text BELOW the message you're quoting so that it lines up with the Left Hand edge of the box

    You don't have to highlight anything - just select Reply to message > Quote message

    Nope Didn't work! No quoted message showed up! I overlooked the fact that preview didn't work and did what you said exactly this: Pressed reply to message/quote message/typed my reply in/pressed reply,and I got the above post. Above the subject line it shows: [+] Show Message Replying To I have tried this on 2 computers with the same results. This is as frustrating as getting effects to audition in drum maps!
