Double click, copy and paste works for me with Firefox.

Thanks for posting that hint

    Entering the character string to post

    Perhaps I am simply too old/sight impaired to do this. But many times I simply can not discern what the required character string to enter a reply is.

    You need to filter for some things. Indistinct upper/lower case (e.g., i vs l That is I vs L). The string generator needs to take into consideration the easy readability of the text to old eyes. To young eyes they look different; to me - not. There are other characters that have this problem.

    The capital "O" 's and the 0 [zeros] are real hard to discern. For whatever reason my browser won't let me cut and paste all of the characters. I can type and read w/o my glasses but I need them to figure out the password. My Dad tells me, " Don't get old, you're not gonna like it"

    make sure that you click right at first letter and highlight all letters. If you are over to the left too far, it will put in a space and will cut off last letters

    copy and paste

    works everytime for me, and like 3lees said, make sure you get it exact with only the characters highlighted

    Rather than the swipe, copy & paste,

    try double clicking, then copy & paste - I suppose it may depend upon browser & OS, though.

    Double click seemed to work best, thanks
