Well. I'll try that way.

That can get confusing with a long message, but basically you could break it up into pieces using the start and end tags associated to the message you're replying to.

In this case, the start tag is in square brackets, which I'm leaving out because they are formatting codes: quote=Rose76;3590795

And the end tag must similarly be in square brackets: /quote

That's all I know, though it's only a stopgap, I suppose.
That I can answer If you want to quote several posts then tick that multiquote button for each post you want to quote. When you're ready to post click reply with quote on the last post. Doesn't matter if you click the multiquote button on the last post as far as I can tell.
Thanks for this!
