Details

I am using build 2000071708. Selecting text ,right clicking the mouse and copying doesnot write content to clipboard. When paste is selected from the main edit menu it pastes the older conents of the clipboard. Right clicking to paste causes the paste option to be enabled after a copy but when selected nothing happens and the option gets greyed out in both the main edit menu and the right clicked menu. To reproduce: Select text right click and select copy. place mouse some where else on the test area and right click, select paste. Nothing happens and notice that the next time you right click paste is greyed out in both the main and right clicked menu.
COnfirmed with 071910 mozilla build on NT. mozilla copies from the Edit menu item and from ctrl+c but not from the context menu.

->pinkerton, Is this another symptom of the 'stealing focus' issue, or should we separately nominate for nsbeta3?
