Depends on the browser-settings and the terminal. In the standard configuration, you *should* be able to select the command in the browser and middle-click your mouse in the terminal to paste the command. This uses the X "selection" buffer. Alternatively, you can select the text in the browser and copy it (using either Edit→Copy or control+C), but then you have to know your terminal on how to paste from the X "clipboard" buffer (as opposed to the aforementioned "selection" buffer). If you have access to menus such as in Gnome terminal, you can use Edit→Paste which likely also has a shortcut key combination. If not, it's a little more challenging in a terminal like xterm, rxvt, or st/stterm (the suckless terminal). As a side note, I like to use a clipboard manager (I use "clipit") to simplify this.
