Thorny,

Thanks--but just so I'm clear, can you please confirm it works properly 
specifically from (i.e., within) the address / location bar?  

(On my Mandriva systems, (most recently, 2006, with konqueror 3.5.4), I 
could put the cursor in the address bar, press <ctrl> a (or choose 
select all on the menu) and select the entire web address.  On this 
system (Debian 5.0) that does not work.)

Thanks!  I assumed that, but wanted confirmation as I'm puzzled as to 
what might be different on my system that it works for you (in the 
location bar) and for at least one other person but not for me.  I do 
have some other problems that I don't think are relevant, so won't cite 
them atm, but I can't really imagine what I could have done to prevent 
this from working.  In fact, it was one of the early problems I 
noticed, before I started "configuring"/fine tuning this Debian 5.0 
system.

I'm sure!
