Way to fast select text in web page in chrome












0















Anyone knows of a way to select all text in a section of a web page (it woud be a DIV in html) without having to select from top to bottom with the mouse? The intent is to click at beginning of the text in the main part of the page (no, adds, no menus, etc) to select and send to TTS app
There are ways to do this editing html code, but I am looking for quick select-to-tts (or could be sent to any other app/extension)
Thanks

The easiest way I have found which almost answers your Question:




  • Select the first word or letter or a part of the word where you want to start
    copying.

  • Scroll down till the place you have to copy.

  • Hold down the Shift key, and click on the ending of the text.

    Try Ctrl+A
    (Ctrl+C to copy, Ctrl+P to paste, Ctrl+Z to undo, Ctrl+Y to "redo (undo an undo) - probably the most useful keyboard shortcuts.)
