Firefox won't copy URL from address bar

Just recently, I am no longer able to copy a URL from the Firefox address bar. The Copy menu item appears on right-click, and it's selectable, but when I do it just clears the clipboard. This happens some websites but not others. It happens with both http: and https: sites.

An example where it fails: https://serverfault.com

Please delete this question. I accidentally opened it for the wrong browser (I use several.) I do NOT have this problem with Firefox! (Thanks FF!)

Okay. Good luck.
