It occurred to me that very few people know how to write instructions for others to use.
So here is the challenge,
Write the instruction for this task, I will do the same and post it later.

If I want to copy and paste information to a thread on the EA I start by opening a reply window. Then I reduce the EA page and open a new page where the information I want to share can be found.
I like to post the link and the article. I first look at the top of the screen and I move the cursor so it is on top of the address. I then left click to highlight the address. Once highlighted and with the cursor still on the address I right click and a small screen opens with the option to copy. Next click on copy. Reopen your EA page and your response window. Right click and the small screen will appear with the option to paste. Click on paste and the link will appear. Next reduce the EA page.
Now time to go back to the page where you found the article. Once again you want to place the cursor at the top left corner of the print. Left click and then drag you cursor so the print you want is highlighted. Once the print is highlighted place your cursor over the highlighted area and right click and again choose copy. If you accidently left click the highlight will be gone and you will need to highlight again. Then reopen your EA page with your response window and right click and select paste and the article will appear under the link.

I should add that after you paste the copy you can type anything you wanted to add. Then hit the submit reply link and your words and article will appear.
I typed this from my Iphone so I will check for errors later.

The only thing I would add is when you say to go to the address add "its the line that starts with
http://www."
You are right on.
