How do you put that line in your post? That looks so much better than the quotation marks I use. And I’m too lazy to put in the HTML to make italics. Because then I have to put HTML all over the post or it gets garbled.

It’s called a “hard rule “. Use (hr) substitute the html tags for the parentheses.

HTML is beyond me! I just paste the quote, put a couple of dashes ( - ) under it and voila, the line appears!

Please, please don’t use a page-wide line as a separator! It is already being used to separate one commenter’s text from another’s and would be confusing. Plus it takes more effort than just using the i-tag and the p-tag.

Use

>> at the beginning and <<

at the end of a quote.

That is all I used in typing this text for you, as wll as jut ending a line by hitting the “Enter” key.
