Fix the Quote This Post Button

[The_Flying_Skeptic]

The Quote This Post (QTP) button isn't broken but I'd like if instead of just copying the plain text of the post to the 'clip board', the QTP button would copy the text that appears in a new post window upon clicking the Reply to Post button. The QTP button, at the moment, doesn't even put the post in quote tags. I think the modification of the QTP would make creating new threads based on posts on other threads a lot easier since you still want to reference the link that the original post you're quoting belongs to while moving a discussion that is tangent of the topic of the original thread it was posted on.

The QTP button does put the post in quote tags. I don't know why it isn't working for you; perhaps try clearing your browser cache.

It works for me as well.

Evidently a problem with your browser. It's working fine for everyone else.

It at least works for me, Adrian, Ely, and leo... though I should hesitate to suggest it works fine for everyone else

[The_Flying_Skeptic]
