Hello, can someone tell me what keys you use to select text on a Mac that isn't in a text field? E.g. text on a webpage? Thanks.

The keys for selecting something on the web are the same as those for selecting text; shift plus whatever increment you want to move by. Be aware however, that although textselection on the web is supported, it doesn't always work. At least for me.

Thanks ill try that. I didn't think the keys would be the same as windows.
