'Reply with quote' is posting up with the coding, not the intended effect.

To the best of my knowledge nothing has been modified on the software side (though as I'm not the web master any more this might not be 100% accurate). Normally I would anticipate this sort of "artefact" to be caused by a slip of the finger. Sometimes dropping a single (and apparently unimportant character) can cause software to miss-interpret what you wanted.... Just one of those things.

It looks like it's confined to that post, no update have been done and the only thing I can think of is the permission sets for the topic have disabled tags.

Still doesnt work on PM's. If you press reply with quote I find it impossible to get the cursor to move to write your reply. I have resorted to creating a new PM in order to reply.

I've now discovered that the way to reply to a PM is not to hit the "reply to message" button - but to go straight to the area below the inbound message and type your response and then hit the "submit" button ( I think i've got that the right way round - I'm going from memory)
Therefore not sure what the "Reply to message" button actually does ??
