Highlighted quotes within message?

[CaseyJr]

Almost embarrased to ask, but how do you get the message quotes to show up in your post where they're in the highlighted or "recessed" box thing? You know, where a poster will "quote" another poster then comment on that (maybe) just one section of the original. I looked through the FAQ's page, but guess I'm BOARD challenged.

If this is what you mean, you click QUOTE button at the bottom of whatever post you are trying to quote.

You can also use the little "quote" button in your Quick Reply section, and paste in whatever you want to quote. The quote button in quick reply is the last button.

Wow! Quick response on that reply! Yes, that's what I meant. Saw the "quote" button but didn't know how to use it. So go to the post I want to quote, and click the button on THAT post?

Hey! I did it! Thanks DivingPrincessE!

The next lesson will be on how to do nested quotes within a quote, with bold or underline.
