Why am I no longer able to copy and paste text from a website?

I am trying to copy and past text from a website and it will not even let me select it. I am very familiar with how to do this, and it worked yesterday on the same page in safari. Please advise if anyone knows how to fix this.

Thanks,

iPhone 5, iOS 7.0.2, I could copy the same text yesterda

Hi, Jrpaige7.


Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.


You can still copy and paste material from various applications in iOS 7. Here are the steps on how to process these steps.

If you are experiencing issues with this functionality, I would recommend closing multitasking and power cycling the device.


iOS: Force an app to close
