    I've not had any issues with the thanks or the single quote. Only the multi thing. If I really want to do it I right click reply and open in a new tab. Then I copy and paste whichever quotes I want into one reply and close the other tabs. More trouble than it is worth in most cases.

    It seems to work for me (now I understand it).

    Those of you that are h aving this MQ issue. Can you please post your specific Firefox version? It seems to be related to just a few versions of FF.

    Thanks
    David

    3.5.2

    I have suffered this issue on this forum for at least three different Firefox versions

    I have no issues with multiquote on IE 7.0

    Update:

    I use Firefox 3.5.2 on Windows XP and on Ubuntu er... whatever the latest animal is.

    The multiquote and thanks always work everytime on Firefox via Ubuntu.

    However they fail together and they work together on Firefox via Windows XP for me. When thanks is functioning, mq is working too. When thanks is not working, mq is also not working. I don't know why sometimes they work and sometimes they don't, but maybe that tidbit can help.

    Just curious Lee, if you were to find they had ceased to work on XP, if a reboot wouldn't correct it at least temporarily ? Then it would be assumed to be your XP rather than the server wouldn't it ?

    hang on, I'll see if I can replicate this on some other machines

    In the meantime, multiquote has never worked for me on SRP. Now, the thanks worked fine for several months. Then *someone* made some site updates earlier this year and since then the thanks button only works occasionally for me. Reputation buttons as well. I've rebooted probably 100 times since then. I was not alone with the sometimes working sometimes not working rep and thanks buttons.

    Another note: I have no problem with multiquote on any of the other VB forums I visit

    XP is probably the root cause here, but I don't think it's my particular XP that is acting up. Maybe it's a firefox extension I have that is goofing things up? Maybe I should uninstall them all, reinstall firefox, reboot, reformat, etc, and see if that helps

    Before going to that much trouble, just create a new user in Firefox and use that one without installing any extras.
