"Create Web Link" then can't select the link text

I want to "Create Web Link" to a soecific directory that I can then email to someone.  This works just fine and the resulting dialogue box with the link to the directory pops up as it should.  Then I can't select the link with either my mouse or the keyboard.  I suppose I can try to manually type it, but I'm pretty confident that will cause errors.  Any ideas why I can't slect the text for the link?  I just updated my Firmware to 6.6.0 and had no prior issues with this.

 

Thanks

    Hello SAJoseph

    I don't see this issue on my ReadyOS 6.6 device,what browser are you using?can you try deleting web browser cache and test again?

      Thank you for the suggestion.  I cleared my history and shut down the computer and restarted it the next morning.  It still won't allow me to slect the link with either the mouse or keyboard.  I use Firefox 90% of the time and this hasn't been an issue beofre last night.  I also opened ReadyCLOUD in Internet Explorer, and had the same problem.

        Got it to work later this morning by restarting my modem, router, and the server.  Then it still wouldn't allow me to select the link text in Firefox.  I went to Internet Explorer and was able to select the text there.  So it seems to be an issue with Firefox at this point.
