1. Go to the URL 2. double click inside the story text (middle of the page), and drag to select a sentence or two --> works fine: selection begins where you double clicked, and extends to the point in the text where you release. 3. Now try a drag initiated with a SINGLE click (i.e., Just click once, and drag over the same region as you tried before) --> selection floods well beyond the rect defined by your drag click and stop - all the way out to side bars and up to the top of the page.
