Using the clipboard in FirefoxOS

Question

Is it possible to access the clipboard in a Firefox OS app? If so, how? I know Internet Explorer has a way to do this using window.clipboarddata. However Firefox has never supported this. Do they use this method for Firefox OS or is there a different method or none at all?

Answer 1

This is not implemented yet, but it is planned for a future version. There is a meta bug for copy & paste support in Firefox OS that you can follow to track progress. It seems that Gecko already supports some Clipboard API events, but there is no UI yet for copy-paste in Firefox OS.
