How do you.....

How do you copy what someone else said in a post and attach it to your post so it comes out in the little box? I just highlighted, copy and paste but it didn't show up in the gray box.

Thanks
all posts have in the right hand corner a tab that says "quote". I am embarassed to tell you how long it took me to notice it there. Anyway, click on it and the quoted message will appear in your posting.
Right! Start with the Quote box......paste your quote and then click the Quote box again to close it.

Same thing with printing a URL.......web link: click the URL box, paste the link address.....and then click th URL box to close it.

Check your work by previewing it.....it appears above (that took me a while to find Laughing ) and if the message looks the way you want it, hit submit.
I've been on the forum for about a year and I just found that little quotey box in the corner of every post about a week ago..... Embarassed Embarassed Embarassed Embarassed
i still can't figure out how you only get the portion you want instesd of the whole entire thing!
Embarassed Embarassed tell you what I keep doing....starting a thread in the photo section and then scratching my head to work out how to get to my photo bit to copy and paste it...tee hee Rolling Eyes Rolling Eyes so now I copy my photo start a new thread and then paste it, instead of other way round...

go on tell me there is an easier way.... Rolling Eyes Rolling Eyes
I use the quote in the original message and once it is in my message then just hilite and delete the part I don't want Very Happy
Open your message box, then go up above to photos click on it ,enlarge the photo you want ,copy the red then close the photo part and your message will be there and then you can paste the red writing into your message Very Happy

now that's some tricky use of quote boxing technique!
once again-forgot to hit the quote box!
Thanks guys, I was clicking and right clicking eveything but the quotey thing. I looked like a monkey doing a math problem. I'll give it a try but I'm not convinced I'll do it right.
