I used to be able to copy & paste copy with embedded links from a Firefox page

Now, when I try this, I get the text only pasted with no links embedded.

Strangely, when I copy/paste from IE, the links remain embedded in the copy.

Thanks, in advance, for your help.



Simple, use SeaMonkey. SeaMonkey browser to SeaMonkey editor page links

The documentation for what you are doing is probably this:
http://kb.mozillazine.org/Creating_complex_mails_with_inline_images#Drag_.26_drop_images 





From that link:

Compared to using the "Insert" menu or drag & drop method, pasting
will usually involve recoding of the image, thus may change quality
and size. Thus, the other two methods are preferred to retain the
original format of an image.


That suggests that using Insert > Image *doesn't* recode the image. So
if you want to control the compression used, perhaps the easiest way
is to use an image editor (e.g. GIMP) to save a copy of the file with
the desired compression, and use Insert > Image to include that file
as an image in the email.


GIMP or IRFANVIEW  the same problem. I had created the file saving
as .jpg file with 100% quality.
This image on disk was added in the plain-text mail and opened with
Irfanview the copy/paste into the html mail.
In the both method SM creates mail-data from bits find on disk file on
disk and from pixels fnd in copy/paste.


When you copy/paste an image, SeaMonkey knows nothing about the file 
on disk and what quality it's saved with. Have you tried using Insert 
> Image? I haven't, but from the link Mason83 posted, it looks like 
that should include the file as it exists on disk. Or attach the file 
rather than including it in the body of the email.



This is SM who do a different treatment. For the plain-text, it's only
and expand and for the html mail it's a compression followed by a
expansion.


There's no difference between plain text and HTML emails - if you 
attach a file to an HTML email it should be the same as attaching it 
to a plain text email. The difference is between attaching a file and 
copy/pasting an image into the email.



Gimp or Irfanview are not involved and cannot increase the length of the
picture in the html mail.


The settings used to save the file should have an effect if you attach 
the file rather than copy and pasting the image.


You said "Have you tried using Insert > Image?" - yes I have just done a 
test.
-If I don't set the "attach" option, the mail is sent without the 
picture, just a big empty square with the picture dimension :-) :-) :-)
-If I set the "attach" option, the picture is in the mail an not present 
as an attachment file - So we can see it immediately without the need of 
manipulating an attached picture.
- and now the html mail have the same length as the plain-text mail, 
with the picture atttached.

I disagree, HTML messages are necessarily larger than the plain-text

Your demonstration wouldn't work with a lossless compressed file,
such as zip or xz. Using a lossy compressed file is cheating since
SM is reencoding the file.

So you're comparing:

plain-text + original JPEG vs HTML + lower-quality JPEG


Yes, but the receiver got the same information .(the lower quality

Another way to minimize the size of the message is to disable
base64 wrapping, and send 8-bit clean messages (which might
not make it across all SMTP servers).

Whatever size the file is on disk, it will add about 1.37 times that 
size to an email due to the encoding (assuming base64, which is usually 
used for binary attachments), plus a few hundred bytes of headers. So 
attaching a 74.8kB file will add about 103kB to the email size.

Attaching a file will encode it such that the recipient can get a file 
with the same content as you have on disk.


I assume by "copy/paste this picture in an html mail" you mean you 
open the image in some other application, copy from there and paste 
into the HTML message so that the image is displayed as part of the 
message. In that case, SeaMonkey just gets the image data - it doesn't 
know anything about the file on disk that it came from (it may not 
even have existed on disk). SeaMonkey will save the image data in some 
format to attach to the email, which may or may not be the same format 
as your file on disk. Not knowing what format it's used in your case, 
it's possible that it either used JPEG with higher compression (lower 
quality) than you saved the file, or perhaps the nature of the image 
compressed better in PNG and SeaMonkey used that.


Of course, if the image was resized (even if not saved) before 
copying, a smaller image would be pasted into SeaMonkey so would 
result in a smaller email.


Mark.

It's just a jpeg image attached directly in the plain-txt message and 
for the html, the jpg is just opened by Irfanview who had created this 
file witth a screen-copy.
This file did not contain anythig else that the pixels .. this is not a 
photo so, no EXIF, no IPTC and no COMMENT attached to the picture.
When opened with Irfanview, I did not touche the picture, no crop, no 
dimensions changes, no colour characteristic  UNTOUCHED.
Then I just do in IrfanView the "copy" command followed by the paste 
command into the html mail.


In plain-text mail I found:

Attaching a file will encode it such that the recipient can get a file
with the same content as you have on disk.

I assume by "copy/paste this picture in an html mail" you mean you
open the image in some other application, copy from there and paste
into the HTML message so that the image is displayed as part of the
message. In that case, SeaMonkey just gets the image data - it doesn't
know anything about the file on disk that it came from (it may not
even have existed on disk). SeaMonkey will save the image data in some
format to attach to the email, which may or may not be the same format
as your file on disk. Not knowing what format it's used in your case,
it's possible that it either used JPEG with higher compression (lower
quality) than you saved the file, or perhaps the nature of the image
compressed better in PNG and SeaMonkey used that.

Of course, if the image was resized (even if not saved) before
copying, a smaller image would be pasted into SeaMonkey so would
result in a smaller email.

Mark.


It's just a jpeg image attached directly in the plain-txt message


So that will be attached exactly as it exists on disk.


and
for the html, the jpg is just opened by Irfanview who had created this
file witth a screen-copy.
This file did not contain anythig else that the pixels .. this is not a
photo so, no EXIF, no IPTC and no COMMENT attached to the picture.
When opened with Irfanview, I did not touche the picture, no crop, no
dimensions changes, no colour characteristic  UNTOUCHED.
Then I just do in IrfanView the "copy" command followed by the paste
command into the html mail.


So SeaMonkey only gets the image data. It knows nothing of the original 
file on disk, so compresses it to JPEG using some quality setting etc. 
which may not be the same as used for the original image. It also won't 
have any metadata which may have been included in the original JPEG file 
(e.g. a preview thumbnail).




In plain-text mail I found:





and in HTML mail I found:





I suspect that SM did not encode the same way the same picture.


How do you expect SeaMonkey to know how the original file was encoded? 
It doesn't know where that file is, nor whether an image pasted from the 
clipboard even exists as a file. Using Insert > Image > Choose File 
/might/ lead to the file being included exactly as on disk, though I 
wouldn't be surprised if it still does some optimisation to reduce the 
size for sending by email.


If you want the file to arrive with the exact same content as it has on 
your disk, attach it (whether to a plain text or HTML email). If the 
intention is only that the image is included as part of the email body 
(which is what it sounds like you're doing with the HTML email), is it a 
problem that it's not compressed exactly the same as the original file 
on your disk?

Mark.


In both way, SM is obliged to manipulate the data ...
With an attachment, this not an exact copy from disk to mail, because in 
the mail, all the data must be transformed in a big string composed of 
"printable" characters. But at the reception pc, If we do a save as ... 
the disk sended file and the disk received file will be exactly the same.
With a copy/paste, this is the same except that SM perform a compression 
first. so the disk sended file and the disk received file will be different.


I have done the test:
- Saving the received picture of the inclusion in the html mail gives me 
a 42KB picture.
- Saving the received picture of the attachment in the plain-txt mail 
gives me a 74,8KB picture - same length as the original file on disk.


The last question could be: How can we modify a parameter in SM in such 
a way that we can modify the compression force when inserted in an html 
mail ?

The problem shows up when pasting text copied FROM a Message Composition
window to anywhere else.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE:

1. Copy (highlight, then CTRL-C) the test block above
2. Press CTRL-M for new Message Composition (MC) window
3. In the body of the new MC window, paste (CTRL-V) the text => formatting is 
intact
4. Select the text of the MC window (CTRL-A), then copy CTRL-C
5. Paste back (CTRL-V) in the MC window => formatting is lost

Yes, I can easily PASTE either or both into a new message.

Do us a favor and disable that autocorrupt feature that keeps

Have you read my reply explaining in détails how to reproduce easely
this bug ?


Sure. Unable to reproduce, as I said earlier. Copy works fine, paste
works fine, even print (Ctrl-P) works fine.



This bug is interesting.
Ray - If I try your steps it works fine, however with my steps it does 
not work. Furthermore this bug just started at 2.26.1 and did not with 
whatever I was using before (probably 2.24 or around there). It sounds 
like your bug goes back further.


So somehow this breaks for some users under some conditions only.



Perhaps this bug depends on SM parameters/options ... not everybody have 
the same options.

I've already answered clearly in the negative several times, I won't

Try this:

I used CTRL-C to copy the beginning of a mail created by hitting
forward ...
And i cannot CTRL-V to a New mail.
In Word or in notepad, the CTRL-V works.



Unable to reproduce. Everything works fine here.

There must be some crucial difference in our installation (add-ons?) 
or settings.


I have AdBlock+, french dictionary and french language  i think that 
those extensions is not the responsible.

For the setting .. who knows ?...

I just pasted something from your message.  It works, but I had to
highlight what I wanted to copy after I opened the reply window, not
before.  If I highlight something before opening the reply window, only
the highlighted item gets quoted.




odd - it doesn't work for me. And yes I was using CTRL-V not P.
IT gets into the copy buffer because I can past it into Word or my text
editor but I can't past it into the other HTML formatted e-mail.
Sometimes I can get it to work, so you may be on to something with an
order that I open things in.
Still it is odd that I can copy/paste the header or the body but not
both together.


I am using plain text for messages, not HTML.  I do not see why that 
should make a big difference, however.

Try this when you have an existing HTML mail and ask me what to do as 
an option in send format options.
Normally you should be able to reproduce. When i do it the quote headers 
ar viewed with surrounded by red-dots  it's an html table.
I think that's the key point to reproduce ... the clipboard of the 
selection in the forwarded mail is different than the clipboard of the 
selection in notepad after psting this text in notepad first.

Yes, darn typos. I did intend to say Reply not sure how that happened.
Anyway odd. Are you sure you did what I said? Let me be more clear.

1) Reply to two different messages.
2) Select the On mm/dd/yy HH:MM am SoandSo Wrote: and the message body 
below.

3) Hit CTRL-C (Windows machine) or CTRL-X.
4) Go to the other e-mail and hit CTRL-P to past it. I get nothing.

If I only select the On mm/dd/yy HH:MM am SoandSo Wrote: or the 
message body but not both it works as expected.

I just pasted something from your message.  It works, but I had to 
highlight what I wanted to copy after I opened the reply window, not

Your the second person to say copy paste functions don't work correctly

Just tested copy, paste, delete using CTRL-C, CTRL-V, CTRL-X within 
Composer and between Composer and other apps, and no problems detected.


This was not an exhaustive test, I spent only two minutes. But 
everything worked as expected.

Copy and past work for me in Email using 2.12.1 although I am using Lion 
10.7.4 and not 10.5.8.


If I remember correctly didn't Mozilla (both FireFox and SeaMonkey stop 
supporting Mac OS 10.5? My suggestion for this user is if 10.6 supports 
appletalk he upgrade his OS to 10.6. He can also look for an alternative 
to Appletalk since all modern browsers (opera, safari, Firefox, 
SeaMonkey) no longer support 10.5. Even Apple has discontinued 10.5 
support so there are no sucrity updates if you use 10.5.

This reminds me of a problem I used to have. Do you use a McAfee 
antivirus (which sometimes is repackaged under another name?). If so, 
its Site Adviser is causing the problem. See

Re: Seamonkey don't support Cut-Copy-Paste and @ symbol !!!

2010-09-16 Thread Beverly Howard

 don't support Cut-Copy-Paste 

There is an irritating issue that has been around for years.

For me I encounter it primarily, but unpredictably, in the email 
composer, where the edit/paste selection is greyed out and it's not 
possible to paste something that's on the clipboard until something is 
copied from the message that is being composed.


It doesn't happen regularly, and, when a copy function is executed, it 
does not happen again in the same session... which for me may go on for 
several days.


Next time it happens, check the edit menu and report back.

Please chime in. Account creation is required to input to any of the
The McAfeeCommunity discusions. The good news is that their account
creation routine does not check if you're a customer. At least it
didn't when I created mine.

Look, the problem is with Seamonkey when you try to copy text out of
it. Every other browser allows copy without problem. I am having the
same issue. It happened as soon as my Seamonkey 2.0 beta upgraded
itself to the release version. Also, copy was working fine in the 2.0
beta and RC2. Same firewall, same antivirus, the only thing that
changed was Seamonkey. Paste from non-Seamonkey apps into Seamonkey
works fine for me.

So, this poster claims that copy--paste worked fine in SeaMonkey 2.0
right up until the time it went GA (IBM talk meaning Generally
Available), released for production, final edition, etc. This sounds
like key info for determining the cause.


Yet RC2 and the final version are identical, so it doesn't sound like it 
came from a change in SeaMonkey (as there was none).

If there's a bugreport on bugzilla chances are high someone from the

Maybe it would be a good idea to contact McAfee, too.

There is an existing Bug, Bug 525601. Actually the following Bugs seem
to me to be dups: Bug 528083, Bug 527662, Bug 515169, and Bug 525706.

Finding these via the searches available from the main Bugzilla page,
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/ is not easy, but in the “Enter a Bug’
process they appeared at the top of the “copy paste” hits.

I’ve added my input to Bug 525601. Only time will tell if anything
will be investigated.

Also from Bug 525601, on 
http://www.seamonkey-project.org/releases/seamonkey2.0/#issues,
SeaMonkey 2.0, Known Issues, says:

“For some Windows users, cutting or copying text, links, whatever from
anywhere in SM 2.0 does not appear to place the cut or copied text in
the Clipboard. Some reports say that McAfee SiteAdviser Service
might be responsible and completely deleting or shutting down this
service might fix the problem. (Bug 525601)”

I’ll try contacting McAfee tomorrow.

 I also discovered that the Site Advisor can be uninstalled altogether.
 Go in Program Files - McAfee - Site Advisor and run uninstall.exe.
 Added bonus: this process prompts a survey form asking why you
 uninstalled the Site Advisor, which allows you to tell McAfee that it
 was conflicting with SM2. The more people do this, the more likely it is
 that they will fix this bug.

 (Of course, it automatically launches the survey through IE even if it's
 not the default browser, so don't hesitate to add a comment about that too!)

 S.

This seems like this is best Google Groups mozilla.support.seamonkey
post to add to, for the copy--paste problem.

It seems that the consensus is that its McAfee's problem to resolve.
But the first thing asked when a problem surfaces, is What changed?
For me it's SeaMonkey (2.0). I've been running the same version of
McAfee since 2009/09/27. This version of McAfee, Total Protection
2010, was released to the public before SeaMonkey 2.0. SM 2.0 is the
new one in the pool (relatively), so to speak. Generally, it's up to
the last changer to investigate, find any problems on their side, or
determine the problem is not theirs, Yes, I confirm that turning off
McAfee SiteAdvisor makes the problem go away for me also. But that
doesn't mean its McAfee's fault. Personally I don't care whose fault
it is. Fault is not the issue, determining what caused the problem is.
Once that's established, the ball will be in whoever's court. They
(whoever it turns out to be) must then decide how to respond and give
a priority to that response.

pasting!

It is CRTL V on Windows and Linux.

See the posts about the McAfee Site Advisor, it is almost surely causing 
the problem.

Once I worked out some Glitches strangely caused after installing of an 
extension, which worked itself out with a second restart of SM2. 
Command-V does indeed paste. I had a problem originally with Cut, Copy, 
Paste.

was Can't get profile to Seamonkey2.0 now can't cut/copy--paste

2009-11-05 Thread William Morrison
Well it looks like I'm definitely going back to 1.1.18, I was just 
trying to write an email to someone and at first wanted to copy a web 
site address from 2.0 browser into the body of the letter and couldn't 
then after I manually typed it in I realized I should move it to earlier 
in the sentence and couldn't this really sucks, every time I would try 
to paste it would put in something I copied earlier from outside SeaMonkey.

This is a reported bug, but does not affect every user.  I was just 
happily copy/pasting in 2.0 with no issue at all.


Have you tried opening in Safe Mode, and see if it works there?  If not, 
have you tried creating a test profile to see if it works there?

For me the following are unavailable: Command-C, Command-V, Command-X 
(PC I believe is equiv to Alt-C, Alt-V, Alt-X). However; I can if I work 
fast enough is select item; hold down option Key and Drag and Drop. Or 
Drag select and hit delete.

Well, you misunderstand me. Safe Mode does not always reproduce the
effect of a clean profile. I am not suggesting that you set up a new
profile for permanent use at this point. I am only suggesting that you
set up a new profile as a test. You don't need to set up mail/news at
all. Just a new profile and do a quick copy paste in the browser to
see if that works. That will tell us whether or not the problem is
profile related or if it is the program on your system. Since it is
working fine for me on both Mac OS X and Win XP, I don't know where to
begin looking for the problem on your setup.

If you choose not to do the troubleshooting step, well I guess I can't
help you, much though I would like to. Good luck with it anyhow.

Lee

/snip/

Ok I guess I did misunderstand you and will try the new profile test
shortly but thought I would ask this first. I went to about :config and
did a search for copy I find that a setting for it reads like this
clipboard.autocopy default boolean false is this correct for this
setting? I haven't changed anything yet but thought I'd ask about it to
see if this could be my problem.




Good thought, but mine is set to false as well, and copy/paste works as 
it always has for me.  That's probably not the culprit.


Try the test profile and see. If it does work, we can troubleshoot 
through your existing profile.  If not, I'm not sure where we go, but 
there are a lot of hands here.
