Lack of formatting task bar

lesleyjoan — Fri, 25 Feb 2011 07:40:47 GMT

SquirrelMail 's lack of a formatting task bar is a handicap, although it appears to accept accents? Is there a fix?

Hi there,
There's no fix I'm afraid. We're actually looking at alternatives to squirrel mail at the moment. There's been some discussion recently on this thread: http://community.plus.net/forum/index.php/topic,92331.16.html

How do I find the current topic's number as you have quoted?

The link points to topic (or thread) 92331 (Do I like Squirrel Mail) and specifically to reply number 16 (the .16 at the end) which is a post by grahamt. Other than that I don't know what you are asking for. Can you be more specific on what you want?

Morning all,
I wasn't actually linking to any specific post in that thread, just the whole thread in general.

Peter, thank you for your help. What I am trying to find out is: where does one find the Topic (or Thread, as you call it) ? Because when I am reading various responses (say, for this thread) I can't see the number allocated to this particular thread. So, where do you find this tread number to be able to quote it? May b, I am really thick!!
I hope this clarifies the situation.
Many regards.

When you start to reply you can scroll down to the last few posts in the thread and click on "Insert Quote" on the right of the post you want to link to which gives this result

Thanks, Oldjim. But, where is thread number? For example, where do I find the Thread (Topic) Number for this thread?
Regards.

Just look in your address bar.
Still don't know why you need the topic number?

this came from hitting the quote button along side your post
and this is from the browser address bar
http://community.plus.net/forum/index.php/topic,93855.new.html#new
a note on quotes dont do a full quote of the immediate preceding post it is against forum rules

Thank you both Peter Vaughan & pierre-pierre. As you may gathered by now that I am new to PN and I'm learning quickly. I'm sure you will correct me when I go astray.
I stand corrected on quote issue.
Regards.

@ Peter Vaughan, sorry, I forgot to mention in my previous post why I wanted to know about the topic #. This was just in case I needed to direct someone to a particular topic in the future to help. I hope this is okay as far as the rules are concerned.
Regards.

you can even give the quote to somebody who is not on PN, as guests can read this forum but not post in it

chandu — Fri, 04 Mar 2011 00:05:57 GMT

Thank you, pierre-pierre. It's nice to know that I can do that without breaking the forum rules.
Regards.
