When I go to share link, all of a sudden after is says "copied", its not copied to the clipboard.

Flash just ran an update today. would this have any effect on it?

    I'm having a similar problem since updating the flash. Not sure if it's a coincidence or not. This only happens in firefox. When I use IE it works just fine.headscratch.gif

    Apparently, the copy to clipboard function used in the Share dialog was relying on some functionality in Adobe flash which changed in the latest Flash release. I presume Smugmug will fix this soon as I believe they know about it. I don't know why it would work in IE unless you have a different version of IE installed or perhaps Smugmug uses different clipboard code for IE.

    My IE version is 7.0.6001.18000

    Works flawlessly, which is a shame, because I don't like IE at all. I much prefer firefox.
