Angry C&P doesn't work in the new forum

Since the changes took place, I can no longer C&P into posts or P.M.'s.
Works fine in IE, but not Mozilla.

HELP!!!

Test test test
Seems to work OK from Word using IE6. Don't know about Dulux, Godzilla, Foxtrot or other "I hate Bill Gates" things though!

Yeah, mate, it'll work fine using IE, but not Mozilla. Another site I frequent recently upgraded to the same VBulletin version that Danny just did. After the upgrade at the other site, I spent hours googling for a solution to the C&P dilema but never did find one. BTW, I'm using the latest version of Mozilla.



P.S. I don't hate Bill Gates, I just prefer Mozilla to IE.

Umm.

I hit the post reply button (down there, on the left), scrolled down to your post (in the list of posts below the replying bit), selected the text (usual left click and drag way), came back to the message box, right click, "paste", Robert is your mother's brother.

Firefox 1.5 FWIW

Bugguh, That didn't work either, got the same options as in my 2nd post. And if it did work, it still wouldn't solve the problem of not being able to C&P a link from another window.

Re: C&P doesn't work in the new forum

Seems I now have to use Ctrl v instead of right click > paste.

Try here

Odd that you're getting frame related context menus - they should look like

Undo
Cut
Copy

Paste
Delete
Select All
Properties

Works well for me if FF1.5.

Yep, works normally for me, using Mozilla 1.5

It's free, and 1.5 is good - why not upgrade?
