Dear Chris,
I understand that in Safari as well as in Mail you have to press vo
+enter to sart selecting the text and then press vo+enter to stop
selecting before you press command+c to copy to the clipboard. Try
this unless others on the list understand this business better.
Good luck, Simon

I am trying to figure out how to copy text from a web site to paste
into safari. Basicly, i had an edit field on the page, which had
text in it. I just needed to actually copy the content of what was
in that edit field. I interacted with the text edit field, but then
when I do command+A, it seems to select all on the whole web page.
Also, when I click in the text box: I say click, as I do not use
cursor tracking when in Safari, I figured it already had all
highlighted and selected in that box, but when I hit command+C, then
went over to mail, to paste it into the body of an e-mail message,
it wound up pasting the entire content of that web site I was on,
rather than pasting just! what was in that edit text area.
Remember: Yes, I did interact with the text area first, like I said.
So, what exactly am I doowen wrong?
Chris.
