Another attempt at a better reply quoting system

Here's something I hope will be much better than the unreliable @88 method for backreferencing a comment.

The numbers for the comments are still here.  Try clicking on the number for a comment you want to reply to.  It should change colors and expand with a cute little message.  Then copy text from that comment's body.

When you paste into the New Comment box (or anywhere, actually), the text you copied will have been magically wrapped with some HTML that attributes and backlinks the text.  Then add your brilliant commentary below that.

Please tell me what browser you're using, whether the feature works or does not.

Blogger Salt January 27, 2016 at 2:27 PM

The comment box is in a cross origin IFRAME.

It's insufficiently advanced technology.
