It's somewhat annoying, but I can live with it. __________________ "This racist lady won't let us play catch!"

So something all one line will quote fine, but longer quotes will not. Don't know if that's helpful. I can also say that it does it in IE, Mozilla and Safari. Doesn't seem to be browser specific at all. __________________ Leeds Rock Society's 'Most Overseas Member' 2005-06 Leeds Rock Society General Committee 2006-07 Leeds Rock Society Grand Mistress Of The Ball 2007 Leeds Rock Society Little London Bravery Award 2006-07 Top Login or register to post comments Wed, 14/01/2009 - 16:10 #5 BabaDraconis Offline Joined: 05/10/2008 Yeah, I thought it was just an Opera thing.

Since most people are using the rich text crap, a new paragraph tag is created every time a new line is forced. __________________ They say only the good die young.

I believe it was "Micrsoft's Last Product Worth Buying Was For The Altair" day and I had to remind myself how bad all their products were. Actually that's going a bit far, once they get the showstopper bugs ironed out of 7 it'll be pretty good. At least on touch-screen netbooks, and where users never have more than 3 browser tabs open. That and no-one sent microsoft the memo about high resolution monitors... __________________ I am not a Legend, I'm just in exile for playing keys.

I think it breaks after certain levels of nesting. Maybe hold back on the uberquotes is the second half of this? __________________ I am not a Legend, I'm just in exile for playing keys.
