ThanQ!! I LOVE shortcuts -- and use keystroke-combo shortcuts as much as possible!

However, I'm on a MacBook Pro with "Multi-Touch" trackpad -- and don't have a "right click" as such. (A "two-finger click" is supposed to be a "right click" equivalent...).

My trial didn't work quite like what you posted -- but, a 2-finger click on the link (without highlighting it first) produced this:

As you can see, I selected "Copy Link" from the pop-up menu...

SO ...all I need to do is put my cursor where I want the URL, type "CMD-V" (PASTE) and Voila! URL right where I want it!

~~~~~~~~~~
Sure beats clicking on the link, waiting for the webpage to load -- and COPYing the URL from the "URL/Search" pane!!!
~~~~~~~~~~

Again, ThanQ!!

IMHO, helping each other like this is the REAL power of the internet!

FRegards,
TXnMA

Thanks, TX. However, once you do that, the rest of your post has to be HTML compliant, which isn’t a big deal, you just have to remember to do it.

Like I have to remember to post some pics to not lose all the awesome knowledge I’m getting.

Same principal with post numbers. Hover over a post number and right click. Fly out has Copy Link Location.
Does the same as your "Copy Link".
