When you're on the webpage, hold the control key down and press the tab
key 
to get to the address bar.  Highlight it by pressing ctrl+a to select
all 
then ctrl+c to copy, or another way to highlight it is press shft+home
to 
get to the beginning of the address then press shft+ctrl+end.  Then
press 
ctrl+c to copy, as you would to copy text from a word processor to the
clipboard and then it can be pasted wherever you like.
