Copy/paste problems from the Local Chat window

I'm using Firefox under Windows 7.

I've been copy-pasting the stories told by various trees, animals, etc into a text file to save them.  The text copy fuinction from the local chat window has been giving me a lot of trouble, more often than not it doesn't work and I end up pasting whatever was last in the clipboard.  I don't seem to have this problem in any other Glitch windows (including this one).

I'm selecting the text I want to copy and using ctrl-C.  Right-clicking on the selected text produces the normal menu of functions but selecting from that menu doesn't seem to work.

Anyone else having this sort of problem?

  • Seems to be a Firefox issue as I have the same problem as well (Firefox 14, Windows Vista). Hitting ctrl-c often finally copies what you're trying to get. The point is, you have to do it more than once to finally get the piece of text you want.
