On an unrelated note, fuck those fields. That is all.
edit: OK that's not all. Anyone else who's sick of websites interfering with your copy/paste operations, find dom.event.clipboardevents.enabled in about:config and set it to false. HTH.
- kohtatsu 7y agoI imagine GP was not specifically talking about paste-disabled confirm-email fields, rather just confirm email fields in general.
- boring_twenties 7y agoI don't think I've ever seen one that wasn't paste-disabled, though my knowledge is way out of date since I found out about the aforementioned config setting.
- paranoidrobot 7y agoWell in our case paste wasn't disabled. It was definitely a case of a PM coming up with a quick and cheap 'fix' to the problem of getting so many people typing their email address wrong the first time. We (from the tech side) put together a bunch of options, including validating the domain and giving the user feedback if delivery doesn't succeed immediately. But it was put on a backlog of 'nice things to implement' and never delivered.
