How do I cut and paste from files on my computer to these message boxes? It's driving me nuts to have to type in URL's and other crap.

I am using the Mozilla browser if that makes any difference.

Are you trying to cut and paste text?

If so, Right click and hold down and grag across text to highlight it in blue.

Then right click and click copy.

Go and left click where you want it and then right click and click on Paste. it should put it right in.

Hope this helped.

Thanks,but that doesn't work for me. It works on other message boards I go to,but not on this one It also works when I copy and past stuff from the web to notepad (for instance). It even works when I cope FROM this box to notepad,but not from anywhere else to this "box" on the HAMB board.

Highlight your text and try CTRL+C. Go to your text box and hit CTRL+V.

It's the same thing as COPY and PASTE but you don't use the right-click-copy method. I haven't had that problem here but I've had it on other boards. This worked for me there.

I'll be damned.I works! Thanks a lot. It was driving me nuts having to type out URL's for posts. I never think I get them right. I guess this must be some sort of Mozilla bug.
