copying web pages - not

[kinook]

It seems that Firefox doesn't do a very good job with the HTML format it copies to the clipboard. Internet Explorer (also used by the UR internal browser) includes a page's external CSS stylesheet information, but Firefox doesn't, so pages using external CSS files will not format well when importing the page selection from Firefox. Perhaps there is a Firefox extension that does a better job when copying the selection as HTML onto the clipboard (Firefox also doesn't include the page title in the HTML, which is another reason we don't use it ourselves)?

OK, thanks for this. The only reason I switched browsers to FF was because it's page renditiion seemed much faster in UR. I will switch back to IE & see if anything has changed & if this solves my problem.

Also I have been relying on Scrapbook for a rock solid copy command which I can link or copy to UR. But I'd rather a single vs dbl step so I'll give IE another shot.

Appreciate the support.
