Selecting Items on a Webpage

Appreciate some assistance.

Trying to select/highlight some info from a website without the use of a mouse.

Control+A selects/highlights all items on a webpage. If you want to select just two or three sentences to copy and paste them elswhere, how is this done?

It's been ages since working without a mouse. Can't remember.

Thanks for the help.

 

Found out that you can use Opera instead of IE and you can navigate without a mouse.

Found Look Ma, No Mouse also. Maybe one of these can help.

Also from this site

Selecting Text Without a Mouse

Place the cursor at the beginning of the text you want to select.
Hold the [shift] key down and press the arrow key to select a character at a time.
Hold the [shift]-[Ctrl] keys and press the arrow keys to select a word at a time.

The site is for Win95 but maybe this will work.

Good luck!

 

Thank you for your reply.

Tried all sorts of suggestions, but still cannot select just two or three sentences to copy off a website and paste them elswhere.

It seems as if one is out of luck without a mouse.

Can select info on the entire webpage, copy it elsewhere (i.e.: Word), and then select a couple of sentences, but otherwise nothing seems to work.


Will keep trying, maybe.........
