Problem Pasting from Clipboard on Blogger

This has been bugging me since I started this blog. If you have Internet Explorer 8 and cannot copy and then paste text into your Blogger Post Textbox, just turn-on "Compatibility Mode".


Go to Tools / Compatibility Mode


While you're at it, you may as well set Blogger to be in compatibility mode into the future; so, got to Tools / Comaptibility Settings. This brings up a Menu Box. Enter "Blogger.com" into the text field at the top and click "Add" then click "Ok". This makes it so Blogger is in Compatibility Mode everytime you go here.




I haven't fully tested this to see if it makes anything else not work, but at least you can copy and paste. I found this here: http://www.google.com/support/forum/p/blogger/thread?tid=418da73cad5aa018&hl=en (I copied and pasted this while in compatibility mode).
