Can someone please explain to me how I can post a reply with a quote from a previous post? Am I just being a bit dense or is there some sort of code required (something I'm completely useless with!)?

Kamakhya, you use this function a lot...maybe you can explain it for me?

There's clearly some complicated HTML thing you can do, but my own preferred approach is to copy the passage, enclose it in quotes, then change a few words so the person sounds a little silly.

Have a look at this HELP PAGE (http://www.sffworld.com/ubb/ubbcode.html) for instructions for quotes, and other UBB codes you can use here at the forum. I hope you'll find all you need to know there.

I'll also move this to General Discussion now, as it's not really a SF topic!
