I need to post information into a discussion thread for class. I copied the information from Pages and I tried to paste the information in the compose section of the discussion board. Every time I try this an error message pops up on my screen... Copy, Cut, Paste is disabled in your Mozilla browser. You can use keyboard shortcuts instead or visit http://www.mozilla.org/editor/midasdemo/securityprefs.html for more information on how to grant access to the clipboard. However, when I proceed to this website there isn't anything that's helpful to me. Help!!!!

You can press Command + V on your keyboard to paste.

If you absolutely need to grant websites access to your clipboard, you can try the following extension.
