I was running 3.0.3 until I restarted FF for the first time in weeks last night - which applied the 3.0.4 update.
In 3.0.3, pasting from a Word doc (or any stylized non-plain text) into FCKEditor worked perfectly fine. Pasted the content into the editor window and it was submitted properly via the post.
Now, with 3.0.4, it pops up a new window to paste into (like it always did with IE) and doesnt work properly. The contents show up in the editor window, but it is not assigned to the value of the object - in other words, the post submission is blank. It's strange that the content gets placed into FCK but GetHTML/GetXHTML is empty.
The new message from FCK in the popup window is: "Because of your browser security settings, the editor is not able to access your clipboard data directly...."
Anyone know a fix for this, please?
My site relies heavily on FCK and I dont want to ask people to use IE! :0
Thanks!
P.S. Adding the following to the user.js (FF config file) restores it to pre-3.0.4 functionality (no popup paste window and value properly assigned).
user_pref("capability.policy.policynames", "allowclipboard");
user_pref("capability.policy.allowclipboard.sites", "http://www.MYDOMAIN.com");
user_pref("capability.policy.allowclipboard.Clipboard.cutcopy", "allAccess");
user_pref("capability.policy.allowclipboard.Clipboard.paste", "allAccess");
But since there's no way to automate adding these entries, it's hardly something that most end users could do - nor is it a viable thing to ASK them to do.
Help!

You seriously think anyone is going to fall for that?
I think you should be banned for such a lame attempt at what would amount to spam.

Hi,
Remark, that I proved, that entries in user.js works with adding this line:
which works perfectly)
