RE: [Flashcoders] Copy Paste into Firefox
Of the 22 people that took the Quiz http://dozo.jp/paste_test?result=true 6 reported paste problems. ie. 1/3. I guess I have to watch for key code: 17,86,86,17 then offer an alternate input method for these people. HTML floating in front of Flash, wmode=opaque, Javascript bridge. Yuck! Thanks for the feedback.

RE: [Flashcoders] Copy Paste into Firefox
Hi Jim, All, No worries, If it works in one version and not in another - it's up to you/theclient/company to decide which browsers you support. I'm the client, the end users are my clients, and I say not being able to copy and paste into Firefox bites!! This is obviously very important to my company and others considering this is an important part of many forms-based flash applications. Agreed 100%. Ajax starts looking a lot more attractive when this kind of thing comes up. I've posted a SWF to collect input here: http://dozo.jp/paste_test.php The source is here: http://dozo.jp/PasteTest.zip Thanks Tony ___ Flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com To change your subscription options or search the archive: http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders Brought to you by Fig Leaf Software Premier Authorized Adobe Consulting and Training http://www.figleaf.com http://training.figleaf.com

Tony, This still seems odd, the http://dozo.jp/paste_test.php example works fine on my XP+FF1.5.0.4 I'll test this on more machines here. -- Jim Palmer !

RE: [Flashcoders] Copy Paste into Firefox
Thanks Jim, I don't want to give you a false sense of hope here but copy and paste is working here for me Hmm... Me too. I'm at home now on a laptop that hasn't been used in yonks and has FF 1.0.7 on it. The machines at the office all have whatever the stable build of FF last week was on them. No worries, If it works in one version and not in another - it's up to you/theclient/company to decide which browsers you support. CTRL-INST works but SHIFT-INST Stupid question... um, what does this mean? With windows machines you can copy with CONTROL+C and CONTROL+INSERT and paste with CONTROL+V and SHIFT+INSERT... I was just using short words for the copy-n-paste keyboard shortcuts. link to your MC and lets take a look... My test swf has nothing more than the simplest TextField and components in it. I'll put together something to try and get feedback from the kind members of this list when I get back to work. This is obviously very important to my company and others considering this is an important part of many forms-based flash applications. I feel that flash e-commerce as a whole is affected by this if you have an issue, thus it's important for me to be aware if others have having said issue. Let me know what you find, please!

Re: [Flashcoders] Copy Paste into Firefox
Tony; Is there a chance that the pasted text is actually including a carriage return at the end? Sometimes I've copy pasted stuff into a one-line text field and thought where is it? when actually I've included a hard return in the copy and so the pasted text has been pushed up one line, out of sight. Don't know why this would be different in IE and FF though, so maybe it's not that, unless IE treats pasted carriage returns differently. It's a long shot, I agree, but a quick thing to check before delving deeper. HTH -- Rick Lecoat -- Original message: Received from [EMAIL PROTECTED] on 12/7/06 at 07:20 Hi, This is really simple question but I can't seem to dig up an answer. copy paste flash firefox seems to match everything but what I need on Google. So sorry in advance for bringing up this topic which must have been covered before. WTF is the problem with pasting text into the flash player on Firefox. I have an application that requires users to copy in a string for translation. Works fine on IE, but on latest version of Firefox running on XP or 2000Pro the keyboard shortcut to paste text from the clipboard won't work. Not unless you press it twice, then you get the text twice... TextField, TextArea or TextInput component it make no difference, and I get the same thing when calling the swf from a html page or directly, eg. mydomain/test.swf. Right click paste works but I can hardly ask my users to do that now. Any leads appreciated. Links, work arounds, anything. Oh, the swf is compiled for the flash 7 player. Thanks in advance.
