quoting broken for FF4
-
Since switching to the new more decorative quote format, FF4 is unable to quote text when replying to a post. When the "quote seleted text" button is pressed the result is to attmpt to submit the reply, and an "empty post" error is generated if the quoted text would have been the first content of the reply. Things work fine if IE8 is used instead.

I posted the original message in FF5, quoting only your message and not adding any text. When the issue happens for you, are you seeing any javascript error in FF? (Ctrl+Shift+J shows the javascript console). The decorative quote was purely a CSS change that affects message layout. There was no change made to posting, storing or processing messages themselves.
