But if I copy a URL from within OmniWeb, or from within Safari, pasting it does nothing. And apparently, most of the places I want to copy from fall into this latter category. cheers... -Adam -- #3 in MDJ Power 25! .. http://db.tidbits.com/getbits.acgi?tbart=08594 Also in MacTech 25! .. http://db.tidbits.com/getbits.acgi?tbart=08603 New Take Control ebooks! ........... http://www.takecontrolbooks.com/ _____________________________________________________________________ Adam C.
