        I wrote an article a while back on how to deal with this cut/paste problem in firefox. Here is the link to that article.
        • What is "EtoX"? Are you talking about MODx or Etomite?

              • I don't get it...I copy/paste all the time into a number of remote sites with Etomite or ModX manager, from mail, from editors, from other web sites, with no problem at all; also Firefox on Mac. What am I missing here?

                  firefox gives me the foloing error:

                  Unpriveliged scripts can not acces Cut/Copy/Paste programaticallly because of security reasens. click OK to....

                  It only happens when pasting in the WYSIWYG end of the editor when you switch over to code past is not a problem

                  • I did have some problems with the WYSIWYG editors when I got clever and downloaded a version of Firefox that was supposed to be specially compiled for Mac to be faster or something (I forget exactly what the advantage was supposed to be), but when I threw it out and went back to the one available from Mozilla I had no more trouble. Right now, I'm on Firefox 1.0.2 and OS X 10.3.9.

                      that link worked but what if you want to set it in a global way for all the sites?

                      I tryed and did not find anything on that on the internet so i tryed dooing som editing of this user.js myself

                      just add these 2 lines in that script and it works on all sites!!

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