tsu that's a neat trick. Until today I wasn't even aware of the 'in response to' block
step three: highlite the text you want to reply to and click " button (you should delete any previous text that you didn't quote highlite)
step four: (optional) change {quote} header to {quote=dal*}
If it's optional I'll skip it, anything that simplifies the process
step five: insert your comments after {/quote}
repeat as required...
*or whomever you're quoting!!
Well let's see how it worked
Wow! now I get it in spite of my various senior moments which have so hampered my progress in these matters
When I read your post #188458 my immediate reaction was,
why hell that's the way I always used to do it, entailing copy-paste of the original. Trouble was, of course, that approach deprived me of the editing icons so that I had to enter each quotation mark manually
...whereas with your stratagem above they're so readily evoked. Again thank you for your aid and prodigious forbearance
The "[Q.....]" function
