<p>How do you get the grey highlight in a response to indicate you are quoting the OP or a respondent.</p>

<p>Once the part you want to quote is in the response box, you select it, then press the " symbol at the top of the box. It will indent it and will be marked for quoting. You will see the highlight after you submit.</p>

<p>For what it's worth, you can do the same thing if you type HTML in manually by using the <blockquote> tag.</p>

<p>This can be particularly useful because you can nest the blockquotes in manual HTML. In the WYSIWYG interface, if you try to quote something twice, it un-quotes it.</p>
