Hi
I've just encountered a strange issue when my colleague tried to copy and paste some text off a website that our national counterpart runs.

The page in question

For some reason you can't seem to highlight any text on the page when you open it in Internet Explorer 8. I can easily open it in any other browser and copy and paste to my hearts content.

Has anyone else experienced this odd glitch and does anyone know a workaround that doesn't involve using a different browser (the woman that wants to do it doesn't like other browsers for some odd reason).

I don't have IE8 installed but using the IETester program I got this error. I don't know if it has anything to do with your problem but thought I should at least show it to you.
