Works on computers, can't check on a mobile or tablet as I don't use one to access.
If you highlight part of someone's post that you want to quote, a little button titled Quick Quote will appear just beneath the highlighted words, click that and the part highlighted will be put into the Quick reply box at the bottom of the page (the page doesn't scroll down to it, unfortunately). Warning - the Quick Quote button only stays there for 5 seconds, but if you miss it the first time around you'll know the second time!

I think it's because tablets go to their own internal menu options once you selects any text.....
