I didn't know where else to place this, but I can't do rudimentary tasks, e.g., cut or paste in my posts. These regular options aren't given to me in Firefox by a right click. The cut, paste and copy icons above say I have to edit the Mozilla config file. I don't have this problem with other VB forums and Firefox, nor previously here with IE explorer. Does anyone else have this problem, or know a simple fix?

Thank you both. Funny thing, it did allow me a copy option, with a right click, but no paste option with the copy afterwards.
Is this the only forum you have to use keyboard commands for such simple tasks with Firefox, by chance?
