Hi all,
During my course of work, I need to frequently copy and paste tables between Firefox tabs. Having to do this, I always used to copy the tables through Google Chrome, and paste them into Firefox to resume work. Of course that's a tedious job, specially when your tables take time to generate (long queries and such). So, what's the solution?
One word, Text2Clipboard add-on!
Simply go to Tools -> Add-ons if you're on a Mac (I don't have a Windows machine to test the steps at the moment), then search for Text2Clipboard. Download and install the add-on and restart your browser. Don't forget to contribute to the developer!
To copy a table, simple right-click the table, highlight Text2Clipboard and select Copy whole table.
To paste anywhere else in Firefox (I personally have to paste some table outputs in some Firefox forms for work), just go over there, right-click and select paste.
Hope this proves useful.
