When I highlight a URL in a post and rightclick it to copy and paste
it to my address bar, it loses the highlighting so I can't copy inside
a post. Is that normal here or am I missing a setting or something?
Originally posted by sonhouseWhat browser do you use? In Opera, it took me a while to figure it out, too. Selecting the address by double-clicking it instead of clicking and dragging does the trick. This will bring up a menu with "copy text" or "go to address" (among other things). I usually use the latter, it's quicker than copy & paste. I hope this helps.

Originally posted by RagnorakThanks for the tip, its my wifes comp, she is used to IE for now. I
My first tip would be to change to Firefox.
My second tip would be to just highlight the link, and then press CTRL + C to copy the text.

used Mozilla for a while but she didn't like it.
I tried the control C thing, highlighted some stuff in the boxes, hit
control C, then invoked Word, tried to put it there to no avail,
Isn't the other half control Z? didn't work. copy paste were grayed out.
