| After lengthy discussion in another thread, the forum now allows for nicer looking quote boxes. It has the following features:
- Quoted messages are now in a nice coloured, bordered box.
eg. if you do this: [quote] yadda yadda [/quote] ...
Quote:
yadda yadda
- You can quote other people.
eg. To quote David: [quote=David] yadda yadda [/quote] ...
David said:
yadda yadda
- Quotes now nest. This means this will render correctly:
[quote=David]
What David said.
[quote=Nick]
What Nick said.
[/quote]
[/quote]
Looks like this:
David said:
What David said.
Nick said:
What Nick said.
- Forum posts now have a [ quote ] link near the top of each message (on the Date line). Clicking this generates a reply which quotes the entire message in the name of its poster.
To make all this work the style sheet file on the server main page has been updated. If you don't see all the fancy effects described, reload your browser page. |
