Aloha kakou, I've had this work on Firefox (with Linux) when everything is properly set up, but it won't and probably never will work on Chrome. Even on Firefox it isn't really ideal. But as long as you have clipboard access configured in your Emacs, it really isn't such a great slowdown to do cutting and pasting--- with any browser, on any system.
Yes, ideally we would have a web-clipper (similar to Evernote). -- Bob Newell Honolulu, Hawai`i * Sent via Ma Gnus 0.12-Emacs 24.3-Linux Mint 17 *
