Comment #7 on issue 462 by [email protected]: paste is not avaible, until input box has keyboard focus http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=462
It’s defintiely a mouse thing since tabbing to the edit field works as expected. For some reason right-clicking a text field does indeed highlight the field, but does not give it keyboard focus. This is the case for multi-line text fields (textareas) as well. I wonder if this is related to that bug that has since been fixed that would not allow you to select a context menu item with the right mouse button. The right—ie “alternate”—mouse button handler seems to be at fault, possibly because WebKit has Mac origins. -- You received this message because you are listed in the owner or CC fields of this issue, or because you starred this issue.
