To protect users' private information, unprivileged scripts cannot invoke the Cut, Copy, and Paste commands in the Netscape/Mozilla rich text editor, so the corresponding buttons on the HTML Editor will not work. To enable these functions, you must modify your browser preferences.
C:\Documents and Settings\username\Application Data\Mozilla\Profiles\profilename\xxxxxxxx.slt
.
On Linux/Unix systems, this may be located in
~/.mozilla/profilename/xxxxxxxx.slt
Instead of .mozilla, you may also have .netscape or some other
directory depending on which Gecko-based browser you're using.
user_pref("capability.policy.default.Clipboard.cutcopy", "allAccess");
user_pref("capability.policy.default.Clipboard.paste", "allAccess");
If you want to enable cut/paste for one site only, add the
following instead:
user_pref("capability.policy.policynames", "allowclipboard");
user_pref("capability.policy.allowclipboard.sites", "http://site.name");
user_pref("capability.policy.allowclipboard.Clipboard.cutcopy", "allAccess");
user_pref("capability.policy.allowclipboard.Clipboard.paste", "allAccess");
