      Right click, "view selection source", gets and higlights the source markup for the highlighted elements, if that's what you mean? Ryan

        No. I want to be able to, say, highlight the text n a message here, and have all of the html markup included with it so that I can paste it into a file/another forum without having to reconstruct the html markup.

          is it possible when one google something, to open ALL links at once in tabs (just with 1 or 2 clicks) ?

            I don't think I'd want thousands of tabs opening on their own and all at once. Not a good idea.

                  Not as far as I know, but if you have a mouse with a wheel, you can click the links with the wheel button and they will open in another tab (without the tab being brought into focus). Another tip: click a tab (the header) with the mouse wheel and it closes.

                    That could be a little tricky. How much markup would you keep? If you selected a few words in a paragraph, would you want to keep all the paragraph formatting (text colour, background, blah blah blah...)? Would you keep the document background? If so, would you want the background image to be aligned in the same spot as it was in the entire document? It's easy enough to extract the source code for a particular part of a document, but if you select across tags, you're gonna end up with unmatched (invalid) HTML.

                      I didn't know the mousewheel closing tip, thanks :-D You can also LeftCtrl + LeftMouseClick the link to tab it. But i'm just damn too lazy X| -- modified at 10:10 Friday 12th May, 2006

                        Well, I would expect that you'd have to take your chances at that point. I don't have the answers, I'm the idea man... :)

                          select, copy will do it, provided whatever you're pasting into accepts a HTML clipboard format. So if you're pasting into a forum that provides a rich-text entry form, that'll be enough. Otherwise, you might want to try something like this: http://amb.vis.ne.jp/mozilla/scrapbook/[^]
