Hi Mike,
You don't need to press Command-a if you want to copy the URL of your
current page: just do your Command-l and Command-c. I use this method
to paste in links to earlier posts after I've searched our list at the
Mailing List Archives for the relevant material.
As I and others have said, alternate solutions are to bring up the
context menu by doing a control-click on the link in Safari -- which
requires having your cursors tracking or else routing the mouse cursor
to your VoiceOver cursor before your control-click -- and choosing
"Copy URL", or to use VO-Shift-U followed by VO-Shift-C, which
announces the link target and then copies the last phrase to the
pasteboard. Either way works.
I'd probably shift over to the latest WebKit nightly build, and use VO-
Shift-M then select "Copy URL" if I were at the parent page, or I'd
use your solution of Command-l then Command-c to copy the URL location
in the address bar if I had navigated to the target page.
Cheers,
Esther

If you open the page, the url will be in the address box. Press
command+l than press command+a to select the entire url, then command
+c to copy it.

Hi guys, I need to link a download into a web site I'm building.
Can any one tell me how to make safari save the target URL of a
link so I can place the code into my web site? Firefox used to do
this from the context menu when I was using windows.
