i don't know much about computers or HTML but i think i've got the general gist of quoting and the like. in what follows i'll replace square brackets
[
]
with curved brackets
(
)
because otherwise you won't see what i'm doing.

i want this line to show up in a quote box

so what you do is surround the lines in code as follows:

(quote) i want this line to show up in a quote box (/quote)

if i use square brackets instead of round brackets this is how it displays:

</font><blockquote><div id="quote"><font class="small">Quote:</font>
i want this line to show up in a quote box

</div></font></blockquote><font class="post">

if i want embedded quote boxes then i can do that too as follows:

(quote) not embedded (quote) embedded (/quote) not embedded (/quote)

if i use square brackets instead of round brackets it displays like this:

</font><blockquote><div id="quote"><font class="small">Quote:</font>
not embedded </font><blockquote><div id="quote"><font class="small">Quote:</font>
embedded

</div></font></blockquote><font class="post"> not embedded

</div></font></blockquote><font class="post">

instead of doing the brackets you can 'quote' someone instead of replying to them. it puts the code in for you. but if you mess with the code (by copying and pasting stuff or by moving it or deleting it or part of it or something then things get a bit messed up).

hope this helps...
