Can you be more precise which spec you are mentionning ? Before I started working on copy and paste of formulae for ActiveMath, the MSIE API seemed to be interesting... six months later... googling for the same just gives pages and pages of security warnings to please update your MSIE... before you actually get to the API documentation. I don't think what they provide is reasonable or takeable and i believe this is because of the clipboard access without user-gestures. I have never discovered one in Gecko... but maybe this is only granted to XUL apps, or at least trusted javascript ? paul
