[gsuns82]

Code

				   PastedText.execCommand("Paste");

createTextRange () is an IE specific implementation. the DOM method (used by Mozilla and others) is createRange().

Similar problem here too:

I tried below in Mozilla,

  document.getElementById("tf").setSelectionRange(0,20);
  document.execCommand("Paste", false, null);

It does not work.
