Hello,

I am attempting to add support for Google Chrome and in testing have found that the "Copy This Table" and "Copy This Row" functions do not work and instead I see a popup stating "This function is not natively supported by the browser."

I am currently using WebGrid 9.0.7200 but for the purposes of testing I used the demo version of 10.0.7200 as well, but the problem exists on both. I was given the impression that the Grids support Google Chrome, but missing this function does not constitute full support.

I would like to know when and if this function will be fixed.

Thanks,

James

This is limitation for non IE browser. Browser like Firefox will block access to the clipboard by default.

By default, JavaScript is not allowed to read or set your clipboard data for security and privacy reasons.This is because websites scripts can erase and replace what you currently have in your clipboard (data loss issue) and they can read whatever you have in your clipboard (security and privacy issue); as such, you should grant access with caution.

Hope this helps.
