Multiple quoting for dummies

[SFASH]

Could some kind soul who has the time explain to me how to selectively quote and multiple quote so that I get those nifty quote boxes, one after the other and sometimes from multiple posts? I find that some are even able to mix quotes in the same box.

I seem to have a learning block on this, so could you kindly place the cookies on the bottom shelf? :(

You time is much appreciated.

Nice and easy... when you click the button with the quotes and the plus sign (the one to the right of the Quote button) you select the post for multi-quote. Clicking it again deselects it.

Then when you hit Quote, you quote all of the posts and can reply to them each individually.

If you want to break a reply to a single post into several chunks, you add quote tags around each part. A quote tag consists of the word quote surrounded in square brackets (like this: [quo te] but without the space), and then you end the quoted section with ([/quo te] without the space)
