    Try clicking on the next post first before the quote as I have that trouble sometimes, Sheal, but clicking on the new post first seemed to cure the problem:dunno::doh:

      I've tried that already, thanks Armandii. :) I've had the problem for a few days now so perhaps it's just gremlins. I'll give it a while longer and see if it sorts itself out.

        I think you must be too far away from the GC server. :scratch: :snorky:

            I'm using Edge/Bing @Fat Controller. This evening I've made a discovery. After highlighting the quote - the 'quote/reply' button appears, normally I would hit the quote side, this time I hit the reply side and the quote worked. :scratch:

              Hmmmmm.... I wonder if it is a symptom of the way that Edge is handling Flash nowadays. I will try to replicate it and see if I can't find a solution.
