    'sorry this function has been disabled'

    If you go to this website:



    It won't allow you to PASTE email addresses. Is there a way around
    this?
    (I am using a similar site but not this exact site)

    (I must use IE - I can't use Firefox for this)

    Can I use a freeware application to edit this (and save it to a
    different web address)?

    Use Firefox...
    (I must use IE - I can't use Firefox for this)
    Maybe disable JavaScript?

    Then again, what's the problem with typing your address in it? You're
    not going to insert 100s of addresses automatically, are you?

      It can be done with the keyboard.
      Ctrl + v for paste
      Ctrl + x for cut
      Ctrl + c for copy

      It can also be done by with the mouse, just keep the button down after the
      click and hit the Enter key, space bar or Esc key to dismiss the alert,
      then let go of the button and the menu will appear.

      Why is it that our memory is good enough to retain the least
      triviality that happens to us, and yet not good enough to recollect
      how often we have told it to the same person?

        That's how it normally works, yes. However, on this particular site,
        IE does not paste anything into the field.

          Neither of those work on this site: 'function disabled' (or similar
          message)

            IE7 vista has no issues with the methods. Perhaps it's an issue for other
            versions.

                  Doesn't matter. The textfield has this: onpaste="return false;"; IE6
                  has the same handler.

                  FireFox apparently doesn't. The onpaste handler is new to me. I'd use
                  it if it had a FireFox equivalent, although certainly not for that purpose!

                  As others have suggested, turn off javascript.

                        It's a really good idea to not paste emails addresses. The whole point of
                        asking you to confirm it a second time is to make sure you typed it right
                        the first time - cut and pasting it from the first box to the second
                        doesn't do that.

                        Obviously, using javascript or similar to prevent it is stupid, and I have
                        no answers to your problem.
