Hi Mary,

That is exactly what I'm saying.  You can also select text to copy and paste 
using this method.  Problem is , it doesn't work all the time.  Usually 
refreshing the page will do the trick.  But other times its just a no go for 
me.  I hope the reliability of this feature is fixed.  It is so much better 
than the hoops one had to jump  through on Leopard.
