Hi Daniel,
   You have to interact with the area and then hit VO keys and enter to start 
selection mode.  When you have selected all the text you want, hit VO keys and 
enter again before doing a command-C to copy the text.

   This is not fool proof, so be aware of that.  However, by and large, I 
usually find success with this method.

   Note as Tracy indicated that if you do a command-a to select the entire 
webpage and then copy it, it will include all the links and graphics as well.
