Default multiple quotes

how do you use more than 1 quote in a single post?
Also, can I edit someone's post when I quote it? i.e. use 1 or 2 lines rather than their whole post

1. Copy second section ( quote ) , paste to your post and use the quote option in your tools to wrap the quote option around your post.
Quote:
it is the one on the end to the right side.
repeat as many times as you like.

2. Yes you can edit the lines by high lighting and deleting them down to the size you want.

if you use Firefox press the "Quote" button at the bottom of the posts you want to quote with the middle mouse wheel, that will open them up in multiple tabs, then copy and paste them in your reply
You can do the same with a right click in IE if you open them up im multiple windows

And since this thread was created all those years ago, we have a new function called multi quote. You hit the multi quote button for every quote you want to add to your post and then on the last post you want to answer you hit the quote button.

Cheers
Col

Up till now I'd been using the more manual method.
