....
In Safari browser on Mac Leopard (tartan instead of spots), you can drag the bottom righthand corner to expand.
However, it gets tedious when at the bottom of the monitor (where I have my Dock in hidden mode) and as one writes more or has a physical depth of quote. Some forum softwares have little up and down arrows just above the top righthand corner to expand - Is that something which can be 'switched on' in this forum please?

Hi Robin,
I am slightly confused. I have tried the quick reply on my account with firefox, IE and Safari and get the scroll bar options to the side of the quick reply box??
On Safari you can also drop the bottom corner to expand the box?
This is what I see: -

Yes, you can drag from the corner or use the scroll bar when the window has got full enough of content.
As I described (and referred to with the example of Tyresmoke.net) some forum software has the option of small clickable arrows which is waaaaaaaaaaaaay easier and faster.
Shall I grab a screenshot and email it to you?
-
Yes please Robin as my brain is struggling to visulise what you mean :laugh:
-
Got your email robin :happy2:
So those arrows expand/reduce the height of the height of the quick reply box??
-
^^^^
Yes - In fixed increments - Xnumber pica/px per click. Surprisingly helpful/useful.
Ees pozzibull??

....Click the small black arrow hiding on the far left next to QUICK REPLY in white on dark red bar. It should somersault and drop the box down.
HTH

Robin,
The only thing I have found so far is an extended quick reply like this one.
I prefer this personally but will welcome anyones feedback.

It's sort of useful having all the smilies etc on top of Quick Reply but it tends to over duplicate and spoil the direct simplicity.
Also, all those waving, vomitting, etc, smilies are a bit distracting. IMO
So I vote against.....Actually hold that....I best live with it a bit.

So far the latest addition allows faster Quick Replies if you want to include smilies, which one often does.
:drinking: :P

I think if I can make the quick reply box wider then it would be useful, I will keep investigating :happy2:
-
i've looked, but i can't see the litttle black arrow for a quick reply anywhere?
-
You need to change your profile options to show the quick reply box, it's in the look and layout section :happy2:

Me duffus :signIWS:
What is the difference between pressing quick reply and pressing reply. :chicken:
-
Quick reply is just always visible on the screen so you don't have to press anything you just scroll to the end of the page and type your message straight into the quick reply box. :happy2:

aha! cheers bossman :happy2:

Oh yeah I'm with you now. :happy2:
