Well, I've researched more, and found that seeminly any clipboard history manager does the same, which is very frustrating, and, what's more, even without a clipboard utility running I was getting the same thing happening. Then I twigged, that the problem occurred really consistently only when I pasted into a blank document in my web page editor or into a text editor, but didn't happen when I copied at least a small(ish) block into an existing page in my web page editor. However, when I copied and pasted the whole of a very long web page into another (using the 'browser' view mode), the links and image references in the pasted material were again all corrupted. It looks as though this is a bug pretty inherent in the behaviour of the Windows (7) clipboard, and thus something that clipboard utility developers can't do anything about ( - sigh!)  I'll just have to make sure to copy and paste source HTML code just as before when I want to copy/paste large blocks, and not expect copying / pasting of the WYSIWYG or browser display of a page to give me uncorrupted results. Of course this wouldn't be an issue for anyone who doesn't use local paths in their link or image references. I'll also have a little ding-dong with Windows Support about this really quite serious bug in the clipboard operation - for whatever good that would do me! -- http://www.philipgoddard.com/index.htm]Philip | ||
