I only use IE, so I was inconvenienced by this bug.
I can View Source and copy, but it seems like a crude way to get information off of the Web.
There was brief mention of what feature is causing this ... could that information be repeated? Is there an alternative feature that would make a good substitute?
Otherwise, I'd be tempted to ask that we publish a link to a list of download sites for compatible browsers.
Best wishes,
Bruce

This may well be an IE bug in the sense that the use of some CSS
declaration or JS call is incorrectly making the text unselectable ..
however, it seems to me that whatever is causing this should be changed
so the text is selectable. This isn't a bug that affects all websites
viewed with IE, and being able to select text seems rather important to
me. Is it acceptable with the rest of the board to allow this limitation?
