Looks good David, and with a background too  . As far as distracting, I think the header makes it easier to see who posted what. I think any quote within quote gets confusing after 2 .
Enigma, I'll try and post txt tomorrow so you can get a better look. |

DavidRhodes, I think your version is ready for the Mod W/Code forum 
I am really curious how you pulled it off! |

It's nearly done, i'll explain how it works.
It does use a new tag called [quotee] , don't know if such a word exists but it sounds right
The structure is like this:
[quote][quotee]Username and date posted[/quotee]Message[/quote]
The tag replacement is as follows ( a few tags removed for easy reading ):
[quote] = <table><tr><td class="Title">
[quotee] = <b>Quote:</b> <i>posted by
[/quotee] = </i></td></tr><tr><td class="Message">
[/quote] = </td></tr></table>
I have used CSS to make it more robust, you can change the colors, padding etc without the tag structure changing.
The only problem I have at the moment is that if you don't use the [quotee] tag within the [quote] tag then the message uses the CSS class Title instead of Message. Once i've got around this problem i'll show you the code |

| Ah, so there is some 'manual' tweaking necessary, or have you also changed the method 'ReplyQuote' in post.asp |

Here's the txt Enigma. Text Files.
The border and width are easy to configure. You must use css though.
<fieldset style=""width:80%; border:1px solid black;"">
the positioning is something else  ( for me anyway  ).
It wants to stay on the left thats why I put it inside a blockquote to center it. |

thanks cripto9t, I did get it working now but something
odd happens when I try to change the color from green
border with the "style" within the fieldset tag.
The width and bordercolor seems to work but I loose the
rounding corners effect from the original 
Is this normal or to be expected or did I miss something? |

I couldn't get the boxed table look to work properly so have decided to use cripto9t's method.

Have you got an example, that should be fairly easy to fix.
If you also post your changed code in inc_func_common.asp, inc_func_posting.asp and post.asp (if you changed it) |
