I am pretty busy at the moment… and you are rather amazing at creating these plugins…

I was thinking that when generating the quoted text it would show up at the top of the textarea like this:

---

|

Quote:

so you really like ascii?

| that’s pretty cool

|

| Yeah, I love ascii… I’m a geek, afterall

---

When generating that quoted text, it would be necessary to find an existing quote within the post and remove that, so the quote of a post that quotes another post then would only have the actual post. (boy was that confusing) It should be simple enough to remove anything between

Quote:

Then on display there should be a hook to find a pair of

Quote:

and replace it with a div that we can then style correctly. By only allowing a pair then you would prevent breaking divs. If the post submitter screwed up the

Quote:

tags, then their post would just not make sense, but wouldn’t break the design of the page.

This is similar to the way invision does it, and it seems like a reasonable way to handle it.

Make sense?
