OZ,
Are you referring to URL in the address bar? I'm not sure why, but when I click on a thread, I only get the flyertalk.com/boards.htm shown there.. but when I click on "send this page by email..", I get the entire URL - so maybe I need to ask my IT guy why that is..

But if you DO see the entire thread URL in the address bar, all you have to do is put your mouse over the address bar, right click on your mouse, and hit copy.. then paste wherever.

Curious - thanks for the insight that some of you have the entire URL displayed!
