3. Those you clicked should now have a red background added.
4. Now go back to the first post (last entered) and click the quote button.
5. Your message box should now show with the posts you .clicked the " button and made red.

You can experiment a little to get the hang of it by trying and using the preview button to check the results.
I wondered how does one do multiple quotes and the mystery has been made crystal clear.

Thanks skyguy79.
You're welcome! You'll notice that your quote of my post didn't get placed in it's own box (like I have it above) and that's because you somehow deleted the "[/quote]" from the end of the quoted text.

Note that the directives in brackets are commands that become invisible once your message is posted... unless of course they are, by error or omission, not properly opened at the beginning and closed at the end of the quote.
