Question about quotes.
 

how can I highlight a certain part of a post as a quote so that I can use it as an illustration of point or so that i can repond to that part specifically?

Click quote.

Keep the bracketed (Quote) ............ (Quote) intact.

Delete the unwanted text.

And.


EG:
(Quote) insert the good stuff here (Quote)

Hope that helps.

If you use Firefox, there's an extension named Paste Quote. Select the text, right-click and pick "Paste Quote" off of the contextual menu, and paste where you want it.

[QUOTE=Lak]Loser on a couple of under 50's[QUOTE]


is there any reason the above quote doesn't work???

[quote]i can't even get this to work[quote]

(in case you don't see, the difference between mine and yours is the "/")


*dubious edit: Umm....since we're in tilted suggestion...any idea why 'code' doesn't supercede the 'quote' tag up there? AFAIK it should have displayed (quote)you need end tags(/quote) instead of just putting the quote in the box... :hmm:

(quote/)like thiss??(quote)

[quote]like this?[quote/]

i think i'll just stick to the thanx 4 that

use [quote] [ /quote] (take out spaces in the [] to make it work if you want it to direct to a certain user then use [quote=user] text text text [ /quote] again no spaces :thumbsup:

there is a limit of 10 characters??? i neva relised that!!!

thanx 4 ur help guccilvr

What about (link) and other vb codes?

I searched and looked through programming but that's all way more than i need.

I've gotten quote and img to work but when i do [ link ] www.firefox.com [ / link] (minus spaces of course) it doesnt do anything. what am I doing wrong and sorry if this is a repeated post

oh wtf??? now it works, haha, really funny

i'm inept

If you post an url, the code will automatically be added to make it into a link. If you want to do it manually, type: [url]www.firefox.com[/url]

A list of some of the vbcode that can be used on this site can be found here
