BurnSide Posted September 14, 2004 #5 Share Posted September 14, 2004 Thanks Burnside,but it doesnt look right???Wheres the "speech marks" 266565[/snapback] When you quote you must be sure to have at the beginning of the quote. When i quote you, this shows up: the quote part means it's a quote, there's your name and the date and time in there. see? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kismit Posted September 14, 2004 #19 Share Posted September 14, 2004 MK ULTRA , the simplest way to get the quotes to work is to add the code Step1.) type in [ QUOTE ] (no spaces) or press the QUOTE button available when you are adding your reply . Step2.) insert quoted text .. Step3.) type in [/ QUOTE ] (no spaces and remember the forward /) or press the close all tags button . too many Quote codes in a post will cause it to appear the way the last few posts have .

Snowbaby Posted September 14, 2004 #20 Share Posted September 14, 2004 (edited) Exactly. make sure at the start of the quote it has "[ quote ]" and after the last word of the quote it has "[ /quote ]" there shouldnt be any other quote codes anywhere else or it wont work.

Saru Posted September 15, 2004 #21 Share Posted September 15, 2004 Here's an actual code example you can copy and paste if need be : [QUOTE]This text will be quoted[/QUOTE] Just substitute the text between the quote tags for the text you want to quote in your post.

+joc Posted September 15, 2004 #22 Share Posted September 15, 2004 (edited) I really don't understand why this is being made to be so compicated Easy Instructions For Quotes For Beginners Copy and Paste the quote. Highlight the quote. Click on QUOTE. To Increase the Size Highlight the writing to be increased in size. Click on SIZE. Do The Same With Color,etc. To Insert a Link Copy and Paste the link off of your URL bar onto the page. Click on http://. Hit backspace (since the http:// is highlighted hitting backspace will erase it. The link you are going to insert already has the http:// in front of it.) Cut and paste the link into the box and hit OK. Type whatever you want into the next box. Link or Click Here or Whatever. Hit OK. That's it. Don't be confused by what you then see on your page. What you are seeing that looks like gibberish are the codes. Once you post it everything will look normal.
