The following is a URL to an example. In Firefox, it does not allow you to copy or paste with CTRL C and V into a field restricted to numbers. It works with no issues in IE and Chrome.

That is a limitation with the script that checks for allowed key presses.
Use Ctrl+insert for Copy and Shift+Insert for Paste.
