How to copy and paste text from a web site viewed in Chrome using the Xperia z3v?

[Chrissy_Edmonds]

I have searched high and low for a way to copy and paste text from a web site in Chrome using the Xperia z3v.  I've tried a long tap, a double tap, a triple tap - nothing works.

I am able to select text, copy and paste it in a Word doc, however.  There must be some way to do this on a web site in Chrome. I'm certain I am not trying to select text that is really an image. I am trying to copy text. Here is the link where I'm trying to get the text. It's a recipe.

Maybe I should try to get Firefox for smart phones and see if that works.

Any ideas?

Thank you!

What do you mean by "on 4"?

Curnow1, this actually worked! Holy Cow, who'da thought?!!

Thank you. I gave you a kudo and I marked this as a solution. Thanks again!

PS - I'm amazed at how long it takes me to accomplish seemingly simple things with a smart phone. This is my first smart phone ever. I am a former computer programmer and am very PC literate. Still, sometimes I pull my hair out. Thanks again!
