Push the Quote button. "quote" with the squared off brackets will appear. (Apologies to the English majors as I don't know what they are called. If square prop tips and round prop tips are good enough for machinery it should be the same for English.)then the quote in white backround
Insert what you want quoted.
Push the Quote button again. "/quote" will appear again with the squared off tips.
Done.

The reason it did not work is you had checked "Disable BBCode in this post"
For BBCode or the quote feature to work this box needs to not be selected. This option is listed under the message body or above the submit button for a new post.
In your profile you can leave this as a default option http://www.avcanada.ca/forums2/profile. ... ditprofile . "Always allow BBCode:" I would leave it selected as yes.

Joe
