Today was the first time that I couldn't quote a post in my reply. There was the white box of the quote, but nothing inside, and I'm seeing some posts from other people that also are showing a white box instead of the quote. Anyone else seeing this?

I tried to quote my full post above, and all I'm seeing is the white box with the T from the quoted "Today was..." I haven't changed any settings and I've never seen this on the forum before.

Probably the entire record from the post you tried to quote was not received on you computer. See if it happens again on a different posting.

Thanks for the feedback Ken & Chuck. Gremlins indeed. I'm on another computer now and everything is as it should be. On my computer the quotes didn't show up, just the white box, but when I inspected the element it showed the quote. Odd. I guess I won't be quoting anyone until I figure out what's going on...so you guys will have to remember what you wrote. Wink

Thanks, Kerry. It looks like I'm back up and running. A Windows Update led to anomalies.
