How do I enable copy, cut n paste in Firefox?

IE doesn't run in Linux.

Can you give the output of:

lsb_release -a; uname -a; dpkg -l | grep -i fire

Thanks

You could install glipper or parcelite, they manage copy / pastes really well. Unfortunately you must keep the app open which you copy from in order to paste, if you use parcellite etc you won't have an issue

> copy, cut n paste

You mean text, bookmarks, images?
Please give an example what you're trying to do in order to reproduce the steps.

## Small example:
I highlight 'paste in Firefox', open Gedit or Terminal and paste it with middle mouse button.

You mean text, bookmarks, images?Yes.
I go to a webpage, n try to copy text from the webpage, I highlight the text with my mouse, n right click to a drop down menu to select copy, and paste it with middle mouse button.
Firefox doesn't have the copy n paste function when u right click your mouse. It redirects me to a webpage that says that the copy n paste function is not supported, need to change some java codes in order to enable copy n paste.

The page that load after the error message is located here.

Well it's just another link to the one I've posted already regarding 'rich_text_editing'.
But regarding your steps, I can't confirm them.
<I highlight the text with my mouse, n right click to a drop down menu to select copy, and paste it with middle mouse button.>
<Firefox doesn't have the copy n paste function when u right click your mouse>

a)
Context menu with copy&paste available (although I've never used it), but it works here.
b)
doesn't redirect me to anywhere
c)
I just highlight the text and paste it with middle mouse button (no need for context menu)
d)
I'm not aware of configuring anything in this direction and I don't have a user.js.

Run Firefox in safe mode via terminal and reproduce your steps.
