Code/Quote/Reply problem (text lost)
Hi all,

Several people have complained about and noticed that while using the advanced editor, they will sometimes lose text following a

Quote:
Quote,


In Reply To:
Reply,


or

Code:
Code section.


The problem stems from the way the HTML generated by the Advanced editor is converted to forum Markup - specifically, if you clicked too close to the horizontal line closing the quote, reply, or code section you would actually be typing inside the table tag there, in an area that is discarded by the converter. I've applied a potential fix to the forum here; I encourage people to try it out and let me know if they notice any problems with the quote, reply, or code sections.

Eventually (v2?) I want to change the whole thing to get it away from using tables like it does now, but that would completely change the look and should probably go along with a new template set.
