Let's start with an easy example.
Before:This code:

[quote=Pinchas,Dec 14 2004, 03:02 PM][quote=TheDuncePolice,Dec 14 2004, 02:58 PM]And how do I take out parts of the quotes I don't need in a long post?
<snip>
Can you give me an example?
Thank you

Just delete what you don't want. If there are multiple nested quotes - be very careful. The key is ALWAYS make sure when you delete an [b]open tag [/b]you delete the corresponding [b]close tag[/b].
A good tip is to count the open and close tags after you finish editing - if they are not equal you goofed...

I'm talking about many nested quotes. I think I delete the open and close tags. Let's see what I did wrong.
Ok, TGR fixed it for me.
I'd like to see the same example as you showed before. Can you?

Now I will delete all the inner quotes - leaving just your last question. I will work my way inside out matching up open with close tags as I edit the post. In this case my "Pinchas" quote includes all the inner quotes - so just delete the whole thing...
and voilą...
