This should probably be a dup, but I'll make a dependency instead to avoid duplicates and make it easier to track. It's a mozilla bug, not something that chatzilla can fix.

Patch/Hack to make the brackets that go into logfiles hide inside the output document as well, allowing copying. Thanks to Silver for just about everything in the patch (I only fussed about a few optimizations).

Checked in. I suppose we should really be marking this 'HACKEDAROUND', but for lack of a better resolution --> FIXED.

This started happening again on my machine after upgrading to Firefox 4. I'm using ChatZilla 0.9.86.1 on Linux (KUbuntu). (This bug should be REOPENed, but I don't seem to have the required permissions to do that.)

Comment #5 is right, it seems by now display: none; content is no longer being copied. We could probably hide it some other way... maybe width: 0; ?

Bug 39098 is the top suspect for causing this; it looks like they're disregarding anything that doesn't have a Gecko display frame. I got some success with "width: 0; height: 0; overflow: hidden; display: inline-block;" but inline-block is relatively new in Gecko...
