I am confused about the instructions. I have it isntalled and it works fine. except:

I get a runtime error "object expected"

I cant figure out how to add the smilie check box. I have read some refrences to to a quick reply template but I didn't make one I just made the changes to the showthread template as it says in my original doc.

I cant find this code int he showtread template?

$textareacols = gettextareawidth();

showthread.php

you should have a showthread_replybox template.

How do you reduce the colspan? The quick reply box is longer than the message tables (got table width set at 95%)

.... for this hack,

would be a check box or radio button that could be incorporated into the postbit. When checked, the content of that post would be auto-inserted inside [quote] tags, when the QuickReply user hit the post reply button.

Basically an auto-quote funtion, tagged by a radio button or check box in the postbit.

firefly, i'm getting a small issue I think is related to the variable change in php...
