Hi. I'm running into an issue with Forum Quoting using the Advance_Forum module. This issues is line breaks in the posted text and the quoting feature not recognizing that the lines of text after the initial line break is still part of the quoted text. Thus, the quote is fragmented using only the first line of text. Please see my image examples below.

I've looked at the filter.module and looked at some postings in this forum regarding line breaks, but they all seem to apply to Drupal 5.x. I'm using 6.x (see system information at bottom of post).

I am unable to figure out how to change the filter.module to disregard line breaks and consider the entire post a quote.

Any assistance in helping me resolve this issue would be greatly appreciated.

If I quote a posting that has line breaks in the posting like this:

http://www.necswi.com:/images/original.jpg

The quote result is broken like this:

http://www.necswi.com:/images/quoted1.jpg

However, if there are no line breaks in the post like this:

http://www.necswi.com:/images/original1.jpg

The quote results are more correct like this:

AF has nothing to do with quoting. That's all handled by the quote module. I've heard of problems with the quote module and line breaks before. Here's one of them: http://drupal.org/node/296251#comment-1242379 . If that's not it, try searching the forums. I know this has come up multiple times.
