Replying to a thread- what am I doing wrong?

[mgreenlee]

Hi all,

When I reply to a thread via the quote button, the quote does not come thru in the nice little box as I see on others quote. Mine comes thru like this...
"[quote=sugarzebra]Thanks for the edits and improvements" What am I doing wrong?

You have to have the quote tag at the beginning, and the /quote tag at the end.

So, If I type, [ quote=Belmondo] This is how it's done. [ /quote] without the spaces after the first bracket, this is what I get:

This is how it's done.

Or the simpler version: [ quote] This is how it's done. [ /quote] Shows as: This is how it's done.
