Use copy/paste to the windows clipboard.0 -
You can copy and paste some text, highlight it and click
This will surround the highlighted text with[ /QUOTE] tags which make a boxExample
You could also edit the tags adding an equals symbol followed by a user name
eg
[QUOTE=anyname ]Example[/ QUOTE] (with no spaces)
Result:anyname wrote:Example0 -

Best way is to right-click on the Quote button on all posts you want to quote, then select Open in New Window. Then you get a new window with the quoted text in for each post you are quoting, which you simply copy and paste from the text editing box on the quote to your new message box. That way it has theyourname_ wrote:(no space) part already entered so you don't need to manually do it.
(only appears if you are using the Standard Editing interface. If using WYSIWYG (what you see us what you get) a.k.a. Enhanced then I think it is harder to do :rolleyes:)0
