Subject: Re: Copy/pasting from Safari
Hi Chris,
You asked: 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.
TK: The instructions given to you by others earlier only work in
Leopard. This functionality was not available in Tiger. What you are
doing, selecting all then pasting was the only option available to you in
Tiger.
Sorry.
Later...
