I've run into various contexts in Firefox (and in IE, and in Opera, and in Netscape, and in Safari, and in others...) in which menu Edit--> Copy doesn't work as you'd expect. Sometimes, the author of a website protects stuff from being copied, PERIOD. Sometimes (like in Google Page Creator) things get really sensitive and you have to watch out for key deviation lest your highlight key mode race about hither and yon all over the screen. Sometimes as stated above you just HAVE TO use the keyboard shortcut. Sometimes you have to use the "local app" copy (like, say, in some online document editor's move/copy function such as www.jotform.com). You just have to diddle now and then to finger out what's going on down under you...
