    When I right click on text there is no option to copy. How do I correct this? I've tried many different pages and they're all the same... that option is greyed out. Thanks.

    James,

    Are you using Firefox? If so, and you have other browsers installed, do you have the same problem with Mozilla, Netscape, or IE?

    If you have highlighted the text, then the "copy" option should be available in the context menu.

    Hi Ramona

    For some reason the ability has returned. I'm using NS 7.2 exclusively now (for the past two months) and loving it. Two days ago the option was greyed out on any and all websites. Today it has returned. I asked the same question in the Netscape group and they gave some possible workarounds but they were unnecessary since it mysteriously returned. I can't explain it. Thanks anyway.
