How do you quote previous replies?

I can't figure this out in the new format. Was very easy in the old one. Now obscure (to me, at least).
1. click on post reply ( or add reply on the upper right with a giant green plus sign which somehow I missed )
2. highlight the text you want to quote
3. press quote button in the input box
4. quote should appear if you are using the right browser. ( mac Firefox works, Safari, iPad, iPod do not ) NOTE: it does not say *quote*. Default is set up as *reference:*
It's a lot of work and doesn't work across all browser. Currently it's probably just as easy to just cut and paste and change colour of the quoted text.
