Hello to all,

I notice that when some memebers reply to a post they manage to quote only a specific sentence as oposed to quoting the complete original post, I have tried in vain to do this.

Can someone let me in on the secret?

Many thanks

Hi , just reply with quote as usual , then before selecting " Add reply " , select "preview post" , go into the quote and delete the unwanted text. Then click on " Add reply "

No Problem , some people have been known to use the edit facility to change peoples quotes.

Not nice.

One annoying trait here is , a lot members who are the 1st to reply to a post , quote the whole bloody post.

This is NOT necessary, if you are the 1st person to reply.

And worse when they are quotes within quotes within quotes and you have to scroll two pages down and find a one line response, or just a smiley.

For the whole page of extensions and add on's for firefox go to "tools"> Extensions (a box should pop up) In the bottom right hand corner there will be a link "get more extensions" this will open a new page on the firefox site, loads there just browse or do a search
