I'm doing this again 'cause I didn't follow directions the first time Often I find text or photos that span multiple pages and I'd like to include in a single clip. It'd be great to be able to do this!

But zenlunch, you can do this. Just open each page on a different tab (if you use Firefox) and begin clipping the materials on each page. Then click "save clip" and it's OK, you have a multiple-source clip.

For example look at this clip:
http://clipmarks.com/clipmark/9C638A9A-443E-4DA6-B82E-B5FC466C49B0/
It includes material from three different pages.

Or if you don't have those pages opened, you can still click the link itself (if it's not an image), and keep on clipping.

Once you click the "clip it" button and go into clip mode, you can follow links in the page, type a new URL in your address bar, go to a bookmark/favorite or open a new tab (in Firefox) and go to any page you like. Just keep clipping and hit save when you're done -- everything you clipped will be included in your clipmark.

One note -- if you're using Internet Explorer, make sure you have the latest version Derek added multi-page clipping in the recent upgrade.

Awesome - Great to hear you can do this already. Is this mentioned in the FAQ? If so, I must have missed it. Not surprising Sorry about the double post, I've been trying to delete the first one but for some reason it hasn't been working for me.

Yep, looks like I missed it - what a doofus! Note to self: don't bring up a "new" idea if it's already been written and known by all.

You could only do that when you're in Clip mode, however. More often
than not highlighting the text you want is the most effective way to
save that particular portion. The problem is you can't highlight across
multi-pages simultaneously.

Previously I could manage to work around this issue: highlight a
paragraph, click save; then launches a small window but i just leave it
at that. Then I'd repeat the same with other pages. What I'd get is
several small windows come up (i wish it would go in the same window)
but the latest window will remember and contain all the texts you've
selected seperated by a breakline plus the associated url for each text.
