Cut Copy Paste Buttons Do not work in FireFox

I have applied the following lines to prefs.js, restarted the browser, and still I get the error message that the browser security does not allow cut/copy/paste.

user_pref("capability.policy.default.Clipboard.cutcopy","allAccess");
user_pref("capability.policy.default.Clipboard.paste", "allAccess");

Is there anyone who has this working? If so, could you please step me through how to configure a browser to support this?

Thanks,

RE: Cut Copy Paste Buttons Do not work in Fir

For me on my linux box, it is located in my home directory under: .mozilla/firefox/ABCDEFG.default

The ABCDEFG is a random set of chars that represents your config, but it will always be followed by .default.

Does anyone have this working in a Gecko based browser?

I still have no solution to this. Several people have said "It works for them", but I have not been able to get them to tell me how they got it to work. All the solutions I have seen in this forum do not seem to work.

Again, please, if someone has this actually working, let me know how it was done.

You probably need to set the sites that should be allowed. See the following link which explains how to make it easy to edit your firefox.

The problem is in FCKEditor, not FF. Alert messages about browser security are from FCKEditor code, when it detects FF it changes behavior of copy/paste/cut buttons. I'm not good at javascript, so if somebody can patch FCKEditor, please do it and post your changes. Thx.

RE: Cut Copy Paste Buttons Do not work in Fir

Could someone please just confirm that the Cut/Copy/Paste Icons are working on their system when using FireFox?

The keyboard does work for me, it's just the icons that are broken. I've tried Chromedit, editing the files manually, just about everything under the sun, but still nothing works.

Thanks,
