I don't. But, I guess you need to clarify, when you're saying you "copy/paste", is it Ctrl+C/Ctrl+V type of copy/pasting or Middle-click type of copy/pasting? > This was the result: > -US%3I actually doubt > itAunofficial&q=pdf2html+opensource&aq=f&aqi=&aql=&oq=&gs_rfai=http://twibright.com/pdf2html what was inside the navigation box before? Firefox's middle-click url-paste only works if your middle click is not in the address bar. If you middle-click in the address bar, the regular buffer-paste mechanism takes over (i.e. it will paste your selection buffer without deleting what's previously on the address bar). So, we have three copy-paste mechanism: - Ctrl+C/Ctrl+V, we're all familiar with this - Buffer-Paste, provided by X, pastes your selection buffer to hovered textbox - Url-Paste, provided by Firefox, loads the URL in the selection buffer, which as a side effect, replaces the address bar with that url
