I tried to copy a post so I could paste it to a word document but when I hi lite the post all I can do is quote or reply. When I try to just copy the hi lite disappears- is that the web site or setting I'm not aware of?
In the past on other message boards (admittedly using Windows 7) this wasn't a problem.
Any help is appreciated.

I'm using Vista on this machine and XP on the one in the garage. I do remember seeing the highlighting disappear when I copied with Ctrl-C, but it doesn't do that anymore on either machine.
 
Using Windoze on the internet is like hiring hookers in Reno without a condom.
Dual boot and be safe

Damned Unix elitists. They're the Libertarians of the computer world.

Which browser are you using? Also which extensions are you using?

Try an incognito window. An extension may be terrorizing you

Highlight the post, then hit CTRL+C

Then try pasting it again.

It's JavaScript that prevents you from doing that. You could also disable JavaScript temporarily for the site.....then reload......Copy should then work
