my firefox updated yesterday, and since then i can't copy any link of a web page in an e-mail anymore to send them. usually i could drag the page address and it automatically copied the link in blue and it could open. now it doesn't work. I use gmail, but i don't think it is related to the mail.

In Firefox you usually need to use a chain like button in the toolbar just the above the email compose editor area to create a clickable hyperlink.
Sometimes it is done automatically if you send the message, but I've never seen this in Firefox when composing a message.

yes, actually y read an answer that was explaining the chain-button and i tried this way and it works. but is really strange, because until now it worked automatically on my computer..... it is quite unconfortable to use the button every time. : ( thank you for your answer! i don't know if there is another solution
