Mozillans- Hi. From this web site: https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Matthew+1-5&version=NIV When I copy the words of christ in red type, they will not paste red into my Word 10 file. However, when I use the Chrome browser to copy the passage, they words will paste in as red. Somethings wrong, and should be fixed. yours, Peter Using Windows 10, and firefox 53.0.2 32 bit

Hi there. The only thing I saw in red were links. Is that what you are talking about?

I see this text/html data on the clipboard if I copy such a link to the clipboard. Firefox doesn't place the CSS code of the A element to the clipboard, so you won't see the text in red. If Word finds the text/html data on the clipboard then you should get a clickable link. Otherwise you will only see plain text in the default color.
