To whom it may concern ........ When I click reply with quote I get the 'wheel of death' spinning until I give up and hit the back button. Reply is working but not 'with quote.' :chapeau

Ok now we're talking, distros and straight razors, my two favorite subjects :) If we added music, we'd have a hat trickQuote:

Yeah, I should have thought of that. I have a 'test' account that I keep clear of everything. So I guess my home directory is corrupted on the regular user account ?Quote:

If you delete wherever the browser settings are stored that should fix it but it will also reset any of your customizations. But to avoid that you'll have to learn more about the infrastructure of how things are stored and delete/move pieces selectively until you narrow down the one that is responsible.
It is fixed. The problem was ........ earlier today I had checked multi quote on two posts within a thread. I hit reply with quote and than copied and pasted what was in the text box within another thread/post. I never replied to the one with the multi quote.Quote:

I was talking to JB Horen about it and he has had the same thing happen and he told me about it and sure enough, So fortunately I remembered the thread where the posts were still checked, unchecked them and all good now.
Didn't know that there were so many Linux users on this forum. I'm using Linux Mint here.
Bodhi linux here.
Debian 7.4
Gentoo here
Good ole VBQuote:
