I can highlight using "select all" but it does everything. Then I can't get it un-highlighted. I was able to highlight text in the heading of an old draft e-mail but not that in the body of same. Rebooting and signing out and back in to yahoo did not help. If I close Firefox and open IE the functionality returns. please help, I hate IE. Thanks!
