What's with the Quotes?

[pinerunner]

Recently a couple times I've tried to use the quote to respond to or discuss something someone else said and my text was just hanging out there alone. No hint of what I was responding to or talking about. Only the last couple of times I've tried to use "quote" has this happened. It used to work fine.

They are air quotes.

 

Took me five minutes to come up with that one. Who's the webmaster?

Craig runs the site, I think mooniac58? Let's see how my quote works here, on my droid phone. Many Apple-holics use Tapatalk, whose adds appear frequently when I visit this site on my Samsung Galaxy 2 tablet (also droid) but not on my phone. Personally I do not use Tapatalk.

EDIT: the quote looks fine to me . . . .

Same here..no workie..Thought I was being computer dumb.   Some of my posts look dumb enough without the quote I'm responding to.. Bring back the quote..LOL.

It could be the computer we're on. This has been happening to me on my wife's computer. It also doesn't let me paste stuff in using CNTL-V.  I'm a guest on this computer. I'll try tomorrow from MY computer and see if quotes go back to normal.

OK, now I'm doing it from my work computer. It's quoting Hanks post fine. The problem was only if I was using my wife's computer so now I know where the fault lies. It must have been the cat.
