 How do I copy a web page link?

Question:

How do I copy a web page link?

Answer:

Generic copy information

Copying the link (URL) of the web page you're currently on can be achieved by copying the address in the Address bar and pasting the address into another program.

Copying a long address / URL

Often a dynamic web page or a database driven web page may have a long URL. Copying a long into another program especially an e-mail often cause the links to become bad. If the link is long (more than 60 characters) copy and paste the URL into a web page that creates a short link. Our favorite is Tiny URL, which is found at:

http://tinyurl.com/

Copying a link within a page

To copy a link within a web page or the link of a picture on a web page, right-click the link or image and click Copy Shortcut or Copy Link Location. Finally, you can also view the properties of the link and copy the URL from within the properties.
