Triple-clicking the last (or only) paragraph in a post does not toggle the “Quote” button, at least for me in Chrome 57.0.2987.133.
It looks like this has been fixed previously, but may have resurfaced.

Presumably because chrome’s selection thing randomly includes bits of the chrome too (it seems to select a little bit after the newline, highlighting at the start of the ‘like’ heart). I don’t know if this is fixable or worth fixing but I thought it should be reported. Another thing I’d like is a user-option t…
…so you probably can’t triple-click this text to quote it in a new reply.

You’re right, it’s relating to Chrome. With Firefox there’s no problem, triple click works very well.

I think this is only the last paragraph, I believe @zogstrip worked on making this more robust in the past, looks like there is an edge case.

I think @tgxworld removed/changed my fix. I don’t recall why though 😑

Which commit was it? I definitely did not remove it intentionally.

Ah that commit was fixing the quote button appearing when highlighting the “like” count text. I’ll have a look.

When triple-clicking the last paragraph, the selection spans over the `.cooked` div and starts selecting content from the `.post-menu-area` section.
This is why I added these lines
[https://github.com/discourse/discourse/blob/master/app/assets/javascripts/discourse/lib/utilities.js.es6#L92-L94](https://github.com/discourse/discourse/blob/master/app/assets/javascripts/discourse/lib/utilities.js.es6#L92-L94)
It’s the most reliable way I could find. There’s one thing I didn’t try: adding a `.quotable` div **inside** the `.cooked` div and ensure only that div is selectable.
But another fresh pair of 👀 won’t hurt 😉

Yea I’ll have to look through the code path again since it has been awhile.
