UniversalXPConnect privileges denied

[david]

I receive this error message when I\'m trying to copy to clipboard a document url:

Error: A un script de \"http://localhost:8080\" se le han denegado los privilegios UniversalXPConnect.

Freestyle translation:

Error: An script from \"http://localhost:8080\" has been denied the UniversalXPConnect privileges.

What can be causing this?

Thanks in advance,
David

Do you have any plugin on firefox ( popup killer, add killer or similar ), it could be some antivirus for example that disables javascript script because interprets as a malicius code.

Normally these are the causes that some program - for protecction purposes - blocks RPC javascript calls.

No, I haven\'t any plug-ins. Perhaps file permissions...

To enable javascript Copy to Clipboard buttons on Firefox and Mozilla, enter the following line into browser address bar: \"about:config\"

The list of preferences should open in browser window. Click right mouse button somewhere in active part of preference list window and choose New > Boolean option from context menu. Paste the following Preference name into the New boolean value window input box: \"signed.applets.codebase_principal_support\"

Our actual copy function is:

Code: Select all

function copyToClipboard(text) {
			var ua = navigator.userAgent.toLowerCase();
		   	if (ua.indexOf(\'msie\') != -1 ) {
		   		// the IE-way
		   		window.clipboardData.setData(\"Text\", text);
		   
		   		// Probabely not the best way to detect netscape/mozilla.
		   		// I am unsure from what version this is supported
		   	} else if (ua.indexOf(\'gecko\') != -1 ) {
		   		try {
					netscape.security.PrivilegeManager.enablePrivilege(\'UniversalXPConnect\');
					const gClipboardHelper = Components.classes[\"@mozilla.org/widget/clipboardhelper;1\"].getService(Components.interfaces.nsIClipboardHelper);
					gClipboardHelper.copyString(text);
				} catch (e) {
                    alert(e);
                }
			}
		   
		   	return false;
	   	}
