Why can't I quote a post any more?

tempted to leave you both to it for mine and others amusement....then thought, can't be that mean, or can I?
Okay bb, I'll help......hit the button 'switch Editor mode' top right in icons:OK: (acknowledging thanks to Red for that piece of wisdom and technical knowhow!)

@BB... If the cursor stays inside the yellow box, click on 'Insert a line break' (8th button from the left in the line that contains 'Bold', 'Italics', Underscore'...).barrystar wrote:Just do it I saybogbrush wrote:When I try this now I can't write anything in my own post.

Then delete the line break, and you should be outside the box. It may be browser-specific.

TP's advice should work too.

All sounds a bit onerous to me having to click edit, insert line breaks, etc...why not just be able to type in the white space below?
Latest changes seem a backward step in this regard.

"Switch editor" mode works for meJuliusHMarx wrote:Imposed on us by the company that provides the forum I believe.
(then if you switch back the reply text appears in the white box below...but couldn't get into the white box area before clicking Switch Editor...weird!)

Yes Switch Editor tip works for me also thanks to Red's earlier advice.

It's a great improvement; before when I wanted to quote someone I had to just type below their post, now I get to tap switch editor as well to do the same thing.

I get directly into the quote box, so this looks like it was written by emancipator wrote:emancipator wrote:bogbrush wrote:When I try this now I can't write anything in my own post.

With two Spaniards qualifying, do you think the O2 will feature a Seven Nation Army?

Yea Switch editor is the best option, thx to RED, he sorted it out for me, I was otherwise peed as I could either write or quote only.
