Nick,

Pressing F8 twice when on the first character only works on an actual link in browse mode. And it copies whatever the text of the link is. So if Window-Eyes says, "Link click here," "click here" is what will be copied. If the link text is the actual link then it should work. But if it's a URL that doesn't show up as a link I don't know what you're going to get with a double press. So if it doesn't say link you'll have to go to the beginning, hit F8, go to the end, and hit F8 again.

Hth,
Tom

Someone on this list gave some good advice regarding short cuts for
copying a URL within an e-mail.M  Most e-mails I receive with URLs have
the link imbedded so I can simply click on the link.  However, sometimes
it's just the URL so I have to copy the URL.  I used to copy that URL
using f-8 and the right arrow key.  Now I hit f-8 twice.  However, when
I hit f-8 twice, instead of getting a You-tube link, I get:
