Same problem on linux, mozilla 1.1.

This same bug keeps coming up on different platforms, and is UNCONFIRMED on all
of them. Why?

See also bug number 179906 (which I created to gather this problem which seems
to be multi-platform into one bug; someone could mark as duplicates later IF
this turns out to be a correct guess)

Did you use ctrl-c to copy in Mozilla and alt-v to paste in BeOS?  And vice-
versa to go the other way?  I know I've done this in Mozilla 1.1, and I'm 
pretty sure I've done it in 1.2.  I'll test when I get home.

I just tried to copy and paste to and from Mozilla to StyledEdit and it worked
(as long as I used the ctrl key in Mozilla and the alt key in StyledEdit).  If
you want Mozilla to use the alt key, try this

Or, am I not understanding your problem??

I have never had  problems cutting and pasting in BeOS with Mozilla. the
assignment of the Hotkey Ctrl-V is standard in windows, and Mozilla is ultimatly
a port from Windows, but the hotkey assignment has no bearing on anything else
ive seen, so i think this bug should be marked invalid.
