Julie, you're not the only one who might need a spell checker.

How to "quote" others
G'day Julie,
In short, if you want to quote others (i.e. stick things in pretty grey boxes ) then you start the quote with "quote" in SQUARE brackets and end, where you want, with "/quote" also in square brackets.
As you can understand, if I SHOWED this in operation, you wouldn't get to see the mechanics of it (except as "in pretty grey boxes" which wouldn't help at all )
By the way, the same applies to bolding (b and then /b in square brackets) and italics (i and then /i in square brackets).
Regards,
G'day Julie,
I hadn't seen you "stuff it up" at all. It's common to see " [/quote]" at times (but not in YOUR replies...)

Hope that helps

Or to make things a little easier........just press the quote button at the bottom of the post you want to quote and it does it for you automatically.
Why do men like to make things so complicated??
