914World.com _ 914World Garage _ OT: How does one quote from more

Posted by: jarbuthnot Sep 11 2005, 05:38 PM

When I'm replying to a post, several times I've wanted to quote one person, answer it, then quote a second post and answer it. Haven't been able to figure out how to do it.

I know it can be done, but how?

I like to cut and paste.

Highlight the words you want, right click, copy, click the quote button on the tool panel, paste , click the quote button again.

Sure you can have multiple quotes in your post.
The trick it have them attributed to the original source.

For multiple pictures you can follow the advice in the previous post to create a URL and use the [IMG] tags. You can also paste and edit multiple pictures on your computer into a single montage. However, it is impossible to have more than one attached image like this.

You can make it say virtually whatever you want!  



You have to cheat, by copying and pasting a bit. You can edit the quoted stuff in the box above the "Add Reply" button.
