theMaxx Posted August 11, 2005 Share Posted August 11, 2005 OK, I have 2 very annoying problems with Firefox 1.0.6 Every now and then, I loose the ability to copy/paste. I haven't found a triggering event and it seems to occur randomly. On top of that, if I enable the option ?Begin finding when you begin typing?, also on a random basis, I get that weird situation where I can't type in an input box as FF will start to search for text inside the page and take cursor out of the box. Actually, I have another problem... If I highlight some text and drag and drop it in the search box, I almost certainly crash FF. Since I'm guessing these problems might be extension related, here's a list of my installed extensioFlashgot 0.5.9.7 forecastfox 0.8.1.2 ie view 1.2.4 sage 1.3.5 download manager tweak 0.6.6 adblock plus 0.5.9 mouse gestures 1.0.1 flatstyle 0.9.1.3 tab mix 0.2.2.3 Thanks a bunch:D; :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trigger_my_passion Posted August 11, 2005 Share Posted August 11, 2005 For the search box prob, you might want to look at this alternative: https://www.neowin.net/forum/index.php?showtopic=355678 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HoochieMamma Posted August 11, 2005 Share Posted August 11, 2005 I found out that if you open up the download dialog box that it retuirns to normal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you have the download manager tweak installed? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HoochieMamma Posted August 11, 2005 Share Posted August 11, 2005 Nope, I just did it by accident. I had the same sort of problem with Deer Park alpha 2 and I just opened up the download window and closed it and it worked :/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
turkishdelight Posted August 15, 2005 Share Posted August 15, 2005 Perhaps you were still focused on another tab and instead tried to copy and paste something nonexistent from that tab while looking at another one? I say this from experience. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even right-clicking on a selected text don't get the selection in the clipboard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
