When I use firefox version 1.5.09 I can not copy the highlighted text within code tags to the clipboard. But in IE6/7 I have no problem. Is this a DaniWeb problem or Firefox? I only experience the problem on my home computer, where I use Firefox most of the time, except when I want to copy posted programs.

Mel, have you tried upgrading to the latest version of Firefox (2.0.0.1)? Perhaps it's just a Firefox bug that's gotten fixed in the next generation of Firefox.

Personally, I've never experienced the problem you speak of even when I used the old version of Firefox. However, that is kind of meaningless since I'm on Mac/Linux.
