Why won't Firefox let me copy/paste into or out of Gaia?

loneturtle said Apr 17, 2008, 7:51 PM:
 

When I try to do this, a popup box directs me to a Mozilla page:
http://mozilla.org/editor/midasdemo.securityprefs.html
which has instructions that are a tad beyond my current capabilities.
It implies that Gaia uses “unprivileged scripts”.

I've never had this happen before on any sites I've registered with.
Is there a simple way around this, or can Gaia make their scripts “privileged”?

Thanks for any suggestions,
loneturtle

Sorry, all.  Solved my own problem, but others might be interested too.

I can't right-click and expect Firefox to cut, copy or paste something; but using the Edit button on the browser bar does work.

This'll sure save me a lot of re-typing, especially the long links!

Happy posting!

I went to edit in browser bar, but found the cut paste copy undo delete choices  ARE NOT LIT UP AND ARE UNVAILABLE AS CHOICES.

Any other ideas?

It says, the page at http//:gaia.com says: “copy, cut , paste not available in Mozilla  and Foxfire

What's that all about.  Why does the Gaia page say that???????

Hi mimi, this one's beyond me. I was just glad something worked. At first I was typing in everything from quotes to long links I wanted to send people.

Oh, one thought. Is your Firefox program updated? Click on Check for updates under Help in the Fx browser. It just did one on mine; maybe it missed you. In fact, that was around the same time I had the trouble with this. Maybe there's a connection.

If no Support person replies to this thread, you could click on Help! (top right of every screen). At the bottom of the page there are ways of contacting them.
