July 31, 201312 yr Hi I find myself no longer able to quote someone in the forums. I notice the 'quote' function has been replaced with 'selective quote', it tells me to select something, I highlight what I would like to quote, click 'selective quote' and nothing happens. Clearly I am doing something incorrectly. Could someone please tell me how to quote? Thanks. Gavin Barbara Over 10 years here and AVSIM is still my favourite FS site :-)
July 31, 201312 yr What browser and version are you trying to use this function with, please? I found selective quote doesn't work on iOS mobile safari.

July 31, 201312 yr Author What browser and version are you trying to use this function with, please? I found selective quote doesn't work on iOS mobile safari. How interesting 'Quote' has reappeared so I can quote you. I was trying to quote from the FSX forum, but 'quote' wasn't showing. I shall go there now and see if it's back. To answer your question: Firefox latest and Chrome latest. Thanks for getting back to me. Edit: Nope, on the FSX forum I only have 'report' and 'selective quote' available. Weird.

November 25, 201312 yr As you can tell I am not able to use the Quote function either. I tried to Quote the first post and as you can see there is no Quote. I'm using IE11.0.96 and Win7 -64. The inability to post a Quote issue has only started recently. Billy Bluestar I Earned My Spurs in Vietnam

November 26, 201312 yr I am about to decide it is related to the upgrade to IE11. The problem is I do not know what settings I need to have checked in by browser to allow me to use the "Quote" function. I am also unable to copy and paste. Billy Bluestar I Earned My Spurs in Vietnam
November 27, 201312 yr same issue here since yesterday, neither quote/multiquote nor cut and paste work.

November 27, 201312 yr This obviously is an IE 11 issue. I have the same problem on the OrbX forums. MS sneaked the 11 on me two days ago and they know, of course, what is best for my security :spiteful:. Also, Firefox works OK. Now I need to find what IE11 parameter to change :fool:.

November 27, 201312 yr Works with IE 8 for me!!! :lol: Seriously, I can't quote from locked topics; only selective quotes are available there. What happened to AVSIM
November 27, 201312 yr Selective quote is back and all the extra junk with quotes has disappered. Happened about 2000Z yesterday. Michael Cubine Michael Cubine
November 27, 201312 yr Correction : the quote function works on the A2A forums. It looks like an incompatibility between this forum software and IE11. It was working with IE10 but not anymore with IE11.

November 28, 201312 yr I suspected this might have been an IE11 problem. Hopefully someone will come up with the fixes I'll need to make to IE11 to get it to work with this forum. Billy Bluestar I Earned My Spurs in Vietnam
November 28, 201312 yr Commercial Member    I am quoting the above post to show what a quote looks like once it is posted. How can I get rid of   before, in ,and after the quote? Is Selective Quote still a function? Using IE 10.0.11 with Win7-64bit. Thank you Michael Cubine I use a Firefox plug-in called script blocker and I know if I block scripts from Avsim and/or googleapis sometimes I see those (html escape code for "space") show up in the quoted reply like that. Do you have anything running or are you using any settings in IE that might be blocking scripts? Just a thought... Jim
November 28, 201312 yr Do you have anything running or are you using any settings in IE that might be blocking scripts? Just a thought... Jim IE 10 settings are pretty much the way it came with the exception of home page and getting rid of the Bing junk. But like I said in post number 11 everything in the forum has started working again. Thanks Michael Cubine Michael Cubine
