Copying And Pasting The Comments Underneath A Daily Mail Article
21 Answers
I want to print out the comments under an archived article from the Mail. I don`t want to just print the page because it looks like lots of subsequent pages will print. Is there anyway I can do it?

Click-drag (hold down the button) across & down, to highlight a batch of comments, releasing the mouse button at the bottom right of what you want.
Cursor over the highlighted text; Right click and choose what to do next from the menu which pops out.
Some webpages are designed to suppress copy & paste, print, screen grab etc. so try this and see what it allows.
If need be, copy and paste into a desktop document to save & print it.

Thanks hypo - I have tried the click and drag but after the first couple of comments, it highlights all of the showbiz gossip on the RH side of the page as well as the text that I want. When I then looked at a print preview, those items were listed one after the other down the page after the part that I want to print and it was going to run to 49 pages.

Yes, some pages are designed in ways which make copy/paste user unfriendly.
I hate to say it's deliberate but…
By the way, I take it that you are not dragging across the sidebar stories but they are getting highlighted anyway? (Just want to check that you didn't take "drag to the lower right of the page" too literally.
