In IE8 on Windows 7 Intermittently, text highlight for copy does not work. The similar issue has been reported at Village Pump of Japanese Wikipedia. Script warning that the script is slowing down browsing the page, pops up and prompts to turn off the script.
The problem is reported on IE7 on Vista and IE8 on XP SP3, but does not occur with IE6.

You can reproduce this consistently by clicking on the table of contents. The first few items in the TOC will restore selection ability, while all others will break it. There may be some selection bugs that are causing this to happen.
Now that we use classified <p> tags instead of adding in <span> tags, this has gone away. We understood it to be the result of setting the selection to within an empty element.
