I would like to update my avatar, but the net link is very long. I would like to copy/paste into the available window, but when I right click my options are: back, forward, stop, refresh, home.

I have only been on one other forum and copy/paste worked easily.

Also when I'm editting a post, I would like to select a block of text, right click, delete. But I don't get that option.

What's up? Thanks.

for pasting try using ctrl+v instead of right clicking, this works in the majority of cases
as for the delete, have you tried just highlighting the text and pressing backspace?
i suppose you could highlight it and then right click and cut it, but then it would be stored in your clipboard

The kazaa web window only lets you use these five options.

Easiest way to solve this is use regular internet explorer/netscape, etc.
You should be able to copy and paste doing this.

Hope this helps :)

Great job, both of you.

ctrl z- that's why I hate computers. How is that logical? I suppose I would have to look through a manual to figure that out.


But, that problem is solved. I was using the Kazaa-lite browser. If I instead connect via the web and IE, I am able to get my good old copy/ paste function options.


Thanks guys.


New problem though, I have been captured and placed in a cage by a small but crafty Japanese girl. I'll keep you posted on my escape plans.

Ctrl c is copy and Ctrl v is paste.
