Opera issue w/using quote reply button

I'm not sure what's going on, but it appears to have problems with editing some but not all posts, and it hates to quote.

I just said that it throws a div class in there, all the html bracketed for italic, bold, and the br's that do line breaks. Brs tough get jacked up and have the forward slash behind instead of in front and with spaces in there.

    I'm not sure if this is a known issue, but if you reply to someone that works, if you use the bottom box, that's fine too.

    But, if you use quote reply, when it pops up you see some HTML code without quotes you get:
    div class="FTQUOTE, i, Originally posted by: b(bold)Username(/b)bold close, followed by some BR's leading into the message body. It then close out with another br then the closing of /div and three more BRs. Of note the BR's all have the / in the wrong spot after the letters.

    What happens when you do this is that while your message is parsed, it's NOT visible to the public. The new post will just have the quoted box of text you chose, some blank space and then your sig, etc. If you 'EDIT' the post your text is there, it just ends up invisible. I'm guessing something with the code is causing the improper closing of the things I noted.

    I'm using the newest Opera 11.5 on a test since I can't use firefox anymore as it likes to kick my 64bit windows ass after using it for awhile.


    Now I can see your entire message. . . weird.

    I can only see your entire post if I hit the quote button. Weird.

    Hey look it's an old board issue JBO Games reported almost a year and a half ago.

    I got curious and went digging deeper into older posts and found this. Same bloody error entirely. Has anyone ever sorted this out, or do people just not use Opera here?

    Yeah, it seems that too few use Opera here, so this bug is being left aside.

    Yeah, I have to insert breaks and stuff myself to create paragraphs etc using Opera. Opera has problems with quite a few websites (or the other way round) which is a shame because I find Opera great personally.

    This bug also applies to the 3DS web browser. I use it a lot to browse the web because I'm too damn lazy to get off the couch and boot my computer. If I attempt to edit my post and add additional paragraphs, when I save my post, anything contained within the added paragraphs is not rendered on the page, but the data is still there. The only workaround I know of is to delete all carriage returns from my post when editing. This breaks up the natural thought divisions and makes the post more difficult to read. EDIT: I will now demonstrate this bug firsthand by adding two carriage returns followed by a brief statement (hint: to view the missing text for yourself and prove it exists, hit the "quote" button on this post):
