Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 220900

(Firefox :: General, defect)

Description

[Storm Cunningham]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.7.12) Gecko/20050915 Firefox/1.0.7
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.7.12) Gecko/20050915 Firefox/1.0.7

Ever since I upgraded to Firefox 1.0.7, I've had trouble copying text that I've
highlighted.  It occasionally works, but at least half the time, if I highlight
a passage on a web page (any web page), and do "control-C", nothing is copied to
the clipboard.  If I highlight the text and go the the Copy function on the Edit
dropdown menu, the 'copy" option isn't available.  I had no trouble with this in
previous versions of Firefox.

Reproducible: Sometimes

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Highlight text on any web page.
2. Do "control-C" or go to "copy" function on menu.
3. Try to copy text to clipboard.

Actual Results:  
Sometimes it works, but about half the time, it doesn't.

Expected Results:  
It should have copied the text to the clipboard.
