I was just wondering(and I dont know if this subject hasbeen brought up or not)
if there was anything the ATS staff can do about the REPLY TO function.

Everytime I REPLY to someone, sometimes I dont remember everything they said, and have to save my work by hitting 'copyNpaste', going BACK to the original to read the material, THEN have to go back to continue on with my answer.
Why doesnt ATS put the ORINGINAL COMMENT underneath the text table like they do with the normal "post reply or quote" section? When you reply to a thread, all of the Comments are located underneath, same with the quotes. Just not on the REPLY TO.

Edit-

I hope I am explaining this right and that I didnt lose anyone.

Is there anything ATS can do about this by putting the comment we are replying to on the same page as the responding text table, that way we don have to keep going back and forth?

-Thank you.

If you hit quote It will quote the post you want to reply to
Or am I misunderstanding?

Like do this....(if you can)

Go to a thread that has a lot of posts... hit "reply to" to any of the posters.
Your text message box will come up, but there wont be anything underneath it. You have to go back and forth.

anyway to resolve this issue?
Or is it just toomuch work to even worry about?

The easiest thing I find is what Ashley said.

Hit right click on the reply to tab of the post you want to answer. Click open in a new tab and viola, you have both the windows right there for you.

You could hit "quote" and just delete out all but the specific section you're replying to after formulating your response? Just a suggestion.

I'd think if both buttons worked the same way, there'd not be a need for both buttons.

oh dear - AOL browser....cant you download Opera, Firefox, google chrome and enlighten yourself into the tabbed browsing world...

I live by opera, its a fantastic and quick browser....

Well, I appreciate it guys!! Thanks!

I guess Iwill just have to live with it
