Unfortunately, I don't really have a good answer. You can try getting at the info through a PC and then sending it to yourself in a text message or an email. If you're talking about wanting to get at something in a text message or an email then you can always forward or reply to the message and then scroll down to get at what you want. Since you'll now be editing the information, you can do a cut and paste.
Of course, with web pages, you can always try to write things down in braille or on your PC and then type it back in where you need it. I know this is tough though, especially when you can't move character by character. Sorry I wasn't more help!
