Firefox is copying the text attached to an image, how do I make it stop?

Specifically on a pet website called subeta.net, but I have confirmed reports from friends that it is also doing so on sites such as gaiaonline and neopets.
Basically what's happening is that if you highlight the image for an item from one of these sights and then try to copy and paste, it will paste the text that is attached to the item. I never had this problem with any previous versions of Firefox, and have confirmed for myself that it is Firefox's doing because I have tried the exact same thing on Internet Explorer and where I tried to copy the image it just gave me a few blank spaces, same as the old Firefox used to do.
I have been in contact with the support staff on Subeta, and they have confirmed that users still using older versions of Firefox and other browsers are not having this issue.
So what I need to know is simply this - how can I (if possible) turn this off? I know it doesn't seem like a big deal, but there are certain time-sensitive features of these sites that make the fact that this is happening very, very annoying.

I was fine with that... now Firefox doesn't do this... I want the exact opposite...
Anyone knows how to able or disable this stuff about dragging images?

  • Firefox highlights all links in pink with dotted borders, how do I make it stop doing this?

    Firefox highlights all links on web pages in pink with a dotted border. Sometimes the links are not highlighted when I first visit a new site, but after a few clicks then Firefox highlights all of them everywhere and it often makes the navigation difficult to read with all the pink boxes everywhere. How can I make Firefox stop doing this?

    If the background of links is red then that is probably caused by an extension like SEO or SearchStatus that has the option set to highlight noFollow links.<br />
    You can check the options of such an extension.<br />
    You can click the icon on the Status bar to open the SearchStatus options and un-tick "Highlight NoFollow Links"<br />

    This problem began a few days ago, apropos of nothing, and has carried over from 8 to 9. While it hasn't compromised Firefox in any way that I can see, it's distracting.

  • Mission control is activated by my shift key even though i have it set to ctrl, up. how do i make it stop? i can't capitalize anything without using the right shift key.

    in playing with key commands to activate mission control in the system preferences i have somehow made my left shift key one of the keys to activate it even though it does not show it in system preferences. i need my left shift key for typing and having mission control come up all the time is a pain! how do i make it stop?
    I evidently didn't leave system preferences properly or something. I fixed it by going back to system preferences and changing the keyboard shortcuts to "-" then quitting system preferences by command Q. Then I went back in and reset the mission control setting to us cntrl, up and then command Q and now it all works fine.

  • I was in a chat box with skype and I clicked on the link to copy the text but it came back with "can't copy becuse not permitted in your browser"

    I was in a chat box with SKYPE and I clicked on the link to copy the text but it came back with "can't copy because not permitted in your browser"
    I can highlight copy and paste from other web screens with no problem.
    The chat window however doesn't give access to the lines that have scrolled past the window so highlighting the text won't work. Other chat windows grab the entire text when the user clicks on the copy link or icon.
    I just installed firefox and haven't tried other chat windows to see if the problem could be repeated.

    Use the keyboard if the buttons on the web page aren't working.

  • Copy a text layer to another image in the same location

    I am trying to find a way to copy a text layer in one image to another image of the same size so that the text layer is in the exact same location.
    Basically I have two images for a rollover button for a website. What is the easiest way to copy a text layer to the other image so that it will be in the exact same location to create the rollover effect?
    Thanks!

    Right click on the layer, Duplicate Layer, set destination to the other image file in the dropdown.

  • How can I copy the text on a published captivate file?

    I would like my students to use the content on the module by copying the text, how can i achieve it?
    Thank you.
    Weiwei

    My understanding is text in a SWF isn't really text any more, from the standpoint of it being mouse-selectable.
    If it is very limited instances of needing to copy text, you can use a text entry box and enter the text you want them to copy as the 'default text,' but it is far from being an ideal solution.
    There is a Text Area Widget included in Cp5.5 but it seems to be broken.  When I try to type random text in it to test, the text gets garbled with caps/lowers, and some letters don't show up at all when entered.  I typed "The quick brown fox jumped over the lazy dog" and it displayed as:  The uiC bron fox umeD oVer the lazy Dog
    There is a webpage widget that can embed a PDF or html page which you can to select the text, it might work for what you need but may take more back end work:  http://captivatedev.com/2010/11/05/adobe-captivate-5-web-page-widget/
    There maybe other included or availble widgets, I am by far not an expert with them.
    hope that helps.

  • Key-stroke combination to copy the text of a document position to another p

    Hello ,
    I would like to Know the way to copy the text of a document position to another document positions.
    I know that you can entry the character + , but I think that there is another way , a Key-stroke combination , could somebody give me some information about this ?
    Best Regards
    Olga

    Hello Olga,
    Unfortunately I believe that it is no other way in the screen directly, only the one mentioned by you.
    You can try use substitution (OB28) but then I am not sure if there is one logic that will work for all documents, like for example copy from line one to all other lines, maybe you can define an exit in the substituion.
    I hope it helps.
    Best Regards,
    Vanessa.
