double quotes in post???

how do you quote two different individuals in your new post without having to copy/paste? it seems others have quoted two different people using the DTR quote function?

just wondering for future use,

Pat

ps- if you need me to find an example of this i can, let me know.

Click on the quote button at the bottom of this post and see the "code" used to form the quote box in the resulting post.


This is what you will see when it is formatted correctly

I just copy/paste.

Open up one quote in a new window, then open the other normally.

Copy/paste the first quote into the reply that contains the other quote,
then type my reply under both of the quotes.

This way I not only get the quote box, but the italic text saying who the quote is from.

Using tabs in Firefox really makes this easy.
