> Are there general WYSIWYG principles for copy-to-clipboard? I also with these were defined. Here is a frustrating example: If you use text-transform to modify case, when you copy-paste the text displayed by a browser, you get the casing of the source, not the transformed text. The following is a short test page you can try. I would think it preferable to either be pasting the source with markup, or the text as displayed, but not what actually occurs. <html lang="en"> <head> <style> .upper { text-transform: uppercase;font-weight:bold; } .lower { text-transform: lowercase;font-weight:bold; } .cap { text-transform: capitalize;font-weight:bold; } </style> <title>Test Language and CSS</title> </head> <body> <p>Original = This text should be all uppercased.<br> Transformed = <span class="upper">This text should be all uppercased.</span></p> <p>Original = THIS TEXT SHOULD BE ALL LOWERCASED.<br> Transformed = <span class="lower">THIS TEXT SHOULD BE ALL LOWERCASED.</span></p> <p>Original 1 = tHIS tEXT sHOULD bE cAPITALIZED.<br> Transformed = <span class="cap">tHIS tEXT sHOULD bE cAPITALIZED.</span><br> Original 2 = this text should be capitalized.<br> Transformed = <span class="cap">this text should be capitalized.</span> </p> <p lang="de">[de] Original = ß (sharp-s), ö (o-diaeresis)<br> Transformed = <span class="upper">ß (sharp-s), ö (o-diaeresis)</span></p> <p lang="tr">[tr] Original = i (i-with-dot)<br> Transformed = <span class="upper">i (i-with-dot)</span></p> </body> </html>
