Anyone else having problems with the "Quote" function?
« on: August 30, 2009, 10:15:04 PM »

I get "loading" at the top of the page if I try to quote a post, and it never goes away. Does this on both Safari and Firefox with my Mac. This is only a new phenomenon of the last two weeks or so and I haven't upgraded browsers or my OS yet. (I'm hesitant to get Snow Leopard because I don't know how much of my stuff it'll break and I"m not keen on finding out.)

What I've had to do (someone else mentioned this before in another thread) is to not show quick reply under "Look and Layout Preferences," which acts as a workaround because something's b0rked in the scripting when quick reply is on and you try to click the "Quote" link.

I've been having the same issues with quotes. Thanks for the suggestion.

BTW, in response to hbelkins's comment, I highly suggest Snow Leopard. It's more stable than Leopard was. And Leopard had two years of patches under its belt. Leopard was essentially Apple's Vista.

Right click on the quote, and then open in a new tab should fix the problem.
