You know those super-annoying websites–yes, Aeroplan, I’m talking about you–that hijack your ability to paste values into password?
In Firefox, at least, you can defeat this hijacking, for all sites, by:
- Enter about:config in your Firefox address bar.
- Search for dom.event.clipboardevents.enabled
- Double-click it to change the value to “false”.
- That is all.
Once you do this, you’ll be able to Command+V or Edit > Paste to your heart’s content.
