If you are trying to show the content from one post to another post of a separate thread:
  1. select "reply"
  2. copy the entire contents of the reply-window
  3. navigate to wherever you want to use that quoted information, and paste it in the new thread/reply/whatever -->
Noted, Done! Perfection! Zero FCs, Zero random reboots, and Zero Gapps issues! I usually have something go wrong on every Rom, but this was a success. Apparently I had garbage left over that could not be wiped from my recovery menu until I used http://d-h.st/szN
Thanks again!


If you are simply trying to link to a specific post:
  1. navigate to the post
    -either right-click the post-number and copy link address
    -or click the post-number, then copy the address from the address bar
  2. now you can paste that link into whatever thread post/reply you want -->

There are some great format tools in the message creation window that easily allow you to

embed links as text

Code:
show the code behind what you're doing, without executing that code
and others.

I use the "preview post" button a lot when experimenting, and to ensure that everything is the way that I expect, and I suggest the same.

P.S. Always from a desktop. I don't go to such effort when working from the device.

Happy Flashing
