HOWTO: Use the new "Quick Reply" feature

[Gerk]

There's a new box that you will see at the bottom of any active set of forum posts now called "Quick Reply".

It works pretty much just as it sounds ... if you want to quickly reply to the thread you are viewing you can type your text into there and post it directly (without having to hit the reply button and load a new page).  To use the normal full editor it still works the same way, hit the "Reply" link the same was as before this new feature was added and it still works as it always did.

TIP:  If you've started typing in that box and want to get to the full editor (with text tools, smiley's, etc) you can hit the "Preview" button, which will save all of your current text and move you onto a new page with the full editor and all of your text you've typed so far already in it.

For advanced users you can still directly type BBCode into the Quick Reply area without having to do it through the WYSIWYG editor window.
