It is working, but I think there is some other problem.

I think it is related to selection rather than pasting. From this page:
http://www.aljazeera.net/news/europe/2004/5/5-20-5.htm:

If I want to select '&#1610;&#1585;&#1603;&#1586;
&#1608;&#1586;&#1610;&#1585;&#1575;' it is selected right and then copied and
pasted right to www.google.com, but when I try to select
'&#1575;&#1604;&#1575;&#1578;&#1581;&#1575;&#1583;
&#1575;&#1604;&#1571;&#1608;&#1585;&#1608;&#1576;&#1610;', I get
'&#1575;&#1604;&#1575;&#1578;&#1581;&#1575;&#1583;
&#1575;&#1604;&#1571;&#1608;&#1585;&#1608;'. Similarly when I try to select
'&#1575;&#1604;&#1602;&#1575;&#1606;&#1608;&#1606;
&#1575;&#1604;&#1580;&#1606;&#1575;&#1574;&#1610;' I get
'&#1608;&#1575;&#1604;&#1602;&#1575;&#1606;&#1608;&#1606;
&#1575;&#1604;&#1580;&#1606;&#1575;&#1574;'.

As I was able to get similar errors in
http://www.issho.org/modules.php?op=modload&name=News&file=article&sid=510 I
think this new error is a seperate bug.
In fact, this behaviour is reproducable in Mozilla 1.4.1 in Fedora here, so I
expect it is a separate bug.

Thanks a lot for the good job.

Can somebody confirm the new 'alleged' bug?

Salam,
Muhammad Alkarouri
