hey cm,

i just found the best way yet (imo) to effectively copy & paste from the langa article in netscape4.7. and my wife showed it to me, so i credit her!

okay, here's that site again, in case any netscape users want to try it (i'm using communicator4.7... this may all be different in earlier browser versions, per gottfried)

winmag.com

once there, note that you can't hightlight or c&p any text. well, try this: click 'file', then 'edit page' and you can c&p again! i like to paste to a new blank page (an option that was recently pointed out to me on this thread), clickstream 'file', 'new', 'blank page'.

this seems to be the fastest method to get around the (for me) newly discovered netscape flaw.

:)
