Select only certain text in an HTML table

In Mozilla Firefox, users may highlight only certain rows, columns, or cells of an HTML table by holding down the Ctrl key on the keyboard and click each cell individually. Once you have selected the appropriate cells, you can copy and paste their text into another program, such as a text editor or word processor. Additionally, clicking and dragging the mouse up or down a column, or left or right through a row achieves a similar effect.

Note: Unfortunately, this tip only works in Firefox. Other browsers, such as Chrome and Internet Explorer, do not support this feature.
