How do you quote someone from your thread?

And you're right, it's more than just an overlay, but that's 95% correct! Crazybrowser got me hooked on tabbed browsing.

That's because (as far as I am aware) Crazybrowser isn't a browser in itself, but rather an overlay which uses the IE browser "engine".

I used to use Crazybrowser until Firefox came out. Crazybrowser is better than IE but is still susceptible to the same security flaws.

I use CrazyBrowser looks like IE but its not it has some neat toys squadron wont alow right clicking on there web site well all i have to do is go into my options and disable scripes and that alows me to to copy and past text and pictures i have had no problems with and has no 3 party crap inbeded in it and its free the whole program is small around 64K everyone ive told about and used it love it.

Glad to see that you sorted it out. I'll argue Firefox is better than Opera, but I haven't bothered downloading Opera since Opera 5 or so...

Thanks Bgrigg!  Opera8 is much better than 5, which I agree had too many short-comings.  Opera8 has several advantages.  The software used by newspapers etc to stop you copying pictures from their websites to your harddrive doesn't work with Opera.  However, you also don't get the pop-up info box for the pictures either.  Also, it's very user-friendly, and comes with a fantastic IRC client (better than mIRC).  However, some websites are not Opera friendly, and sadly, Finescale is one of them... As for Firefox, well, I'm using it now, and no websites are not Firefox friendly.

Glad to see that you sorted it out. I'll argue Firefox is better than Opera, but I haven't bothered downloading Opera since Opera 5 or so...

OK, this time using Firefox

Yippe!  it worked.  OK, so the problem is Opera...(or forum software which is not compatible with Opera.  Pity, it's probably the best browser around)

What type of computer is it? Mac or PC, what operating system and what browser are you using?

Any idea as to why when I try and quote, I get the HTML coding, but not the yellow box? I just click quote, with no alterations made...

The whole message from that person is inserted into the reply box for you when you hit the quote button....you can edit it from there or just reply to it- but their entire message is there.
