Cut/Paste in Firefox

Hi all

I know this is listed in the bugs section, but was wondering if anyone knows:

- what is the cause of the cut/paste buttons not working under firefox

- if there is a quick fix for this?

- if not, some pointers about where to look would be nice

Tx

RE: Cut/Paste in Firefox

the main reason why I don't think it works, is that Firefox can't grab copies from the clipboard without the using ctrl+v for similar.
This feature works by default in IE.

RE: Cut/Paste in Firefox

It seems a Microsoft Office problem. I've got the same problem with copy-paste from Word97 and Excel97, but NOT when I'm using Open Office 2.0 (great piece of work by the way). You can get im-export your Word documents perfectly in and out Open Office, so why don't you try.

Good luck

RE: Cut/Paste in Firefox

Sorry, but this problem isn't related to MS Office, it's just a problem in FCKeditor due to the restrictions in Firefox to access the Clipboard and this patch fixes it:
